They’ve been the favourites at every World Cup since they last won it haven’t they? Even 2010 I think when Spain had the best squad by miles. They’re always the favourites. Because they’re Brazil.

to be fair this is probably the best squad they’ve had since 06 on paper.

what a goal :lol:
The 2006 iteration was great until that game against France, when Zidane and Viera trashed Brazilian midfield.

Brazil had like zero shots on goal.

And the classic Thuram erasing R9.

So many genius people in here saying Richarlison is rubbish. He is Brazil's best striker.
I suppose it's really hard being enthusiastic when you play for Spurs with all that negative football . he is quite good for the national team.

Honestly I don't think that's a particularly great goal. He fecks up his first touch, but makes up for it with a bit of acrobatical magic, but only because the defense don't do their job. He should never have been allowed that much time in the box. Well done, but should never win best goal in WC.

This goal reminds me of the Giroud volley for Arsenal, or the Mkhitaryan scorpion goal for United - both of which I thought were wildly overrated.

Same old bs, you play with one mentality in Qs, then on big stage go full pussy mode, losing doesnt bother me, if they go there brave and lose 10:0 would be fine with it but this bitch ass setup and still losing, such teams should be banned from wasting a spot with such attitude.

What a goal. If I didn't already know he's been fairly average in the PL I might think he was something special. Easy to see how clubs can get caught up in a world cup performance.

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.
