The Latin Americans started to heat up only in the second half, and then only in episodes. The speeds increased, and the quality of football did not suffer. Passing and dribbling remained at the highest level.
The Swiss tried to challenge in attack and exposed the defense. And they began to receive sharp attacks from the Brazilians. We say that playing open football with Brazil is more expensive for yourself. But you have to try, don’t sit in tight defense the whole match.
The first goal scored by the Brazilians after review was canceled due to offside. The second was scored according to all the canons of football art, the “projectile” flew almost into the top nine of the goal. 1:0 – Brazil, following France in the 1/8 finals.
In the same group as the Brazilians and the Swiss, the Serbs and the Cameroonians gave a performance. True, the level of the game itself, in our opinion, suffered. The spectacle, by the way, is not for the faint-hearted fans of these teams. The Serbs, who are favored by Russian fans, managed to squander their two-goal advantage, leading 3:1 during the match.
A self-respecting team doesn’t play defense like that. The Serbs set up a “passing yard” on the outskirts of their own goal, conceding a couple of goals, in the end – 3:3, instead of a full victory. The chances of qualifying from the group are minimal; they have to beat Switzerland in the last round. Problematic. The opponent is organized and the Brazilians defeated him not without difficulty.
A certain football detective figured out the two of Korea and Ghana. The Africans led during the match – 2:0, then the Asian masters equalized the score, but Ghana still snatched a victory – 3:2.
