Ronaldinho might have been right. Not sure anyone here watched but Costa Rica isn’t good

Watched the highlights. Clear pen not given, wrong offside call denied a goal and countless chances were squandered.

That said, since the early 2010's...Brazil has been a collection of high salaried players that could give a rats ass about representing their country.

Ticos did a great job of using the compact stadium to their advantage and keep things tight vs. Brazil. On the other hand, Brazil needs to give it a rest with forcing Vini at LW and Rodrygo at striker. Drop one of the useless CM's and play Vini at LW, Endrick at striker with Rodrygo behind him, and Savio at RW.

With you till you mentioned Savio at RW. In the last three games I watched Brazil play Raphinha was overall their best player, plus his set pieces are *chefs kiss*

I really didn't understand the need to play two defensive midfielders against a team that was going to obviously park the bus. Plus old man Danilo at right back when he's been playing center back for Juve for 2 years now, as he doesn't have the speed needed to help the attack.

Raphinha works too, he's arguably a better player and definitely more established. I am just really high on Savio.

He grew on me as a Barcelona fan, love his will. He also looks like his dog died every time he's subbed off and as long as he doesn't lash out at his coach I love this type of players.

Ye

If I'm Dorival I take off Vinicius at half time, you just know Paraguayans are going to head hunt him in the second half, their tournament is over anyway.

Yea I could see a few very hard tackles being sent in.

The game is over, just pull him so he doesn’t get hurt by some idiot.

Vargas may have reacted a tad late, but pretty clinical hit by Raphinha.
