  • FIFA World Cup 2018
    JOSE RAMIREZ BARRETO Published on 17.6.18 Final-minute goals a common feature of almost all games so far A ready but cautious Brazil will begin their 2018 FIFA World Cup campaign against Switzerland on Sunday. Memories of that heart breaking 1-7 loss to Germany cannot have been easy to overcome but it’s something they have to put aside or it will not leave much room for an easy run through the group stage. Their preparations have gone to plan, with the focus more on tactical training as many of the players were coming off tough club seasons. Under coach Tite, the team has seen a turnaround, and what could have been a difficult road to Russia turned out to be a straightforward one. It’s really great to see the way the boys have responded to Tite. They are pushing themselves and working hard, and responsibly, to reach top form. They have carried their qualification form into the warm-ups over the last few weeks, and are displaying the right attitude and desire. And this means that fans are now again excited about their team. The defence of the team has proved to be unquestionable under Tite with a clean sheet in 16 games out of 21 games. From the middle to the front the performance of the new version of the “magic square”, formed by Neymar, Gabriel Jesus, Willian and Philippe Coutinho, has been indisputable. This tactic has been productive for the attack and it is the individual quality of the players that has brought the results.
