Is Brazil relying on Neymar as much as Argentina is relying on Messi?

It seems like they are. Oscar, who is a critical piece, will be better today since Colombia isn't as physical as Chile but it seems like Brazil is often waiting on Neymar's brilliance to bail them out. It will be interesting to see if James drifts towards Alves side or attacks the Luiz/Marcelo pair.
Brazil hasn't lost to Colombia in 23 years but they haven't beaten Colombia in 12 years. Colombia isn't afraid and a less than 100% Neymar might be hard to overcome if Oscar doesn't return to form.

I feel like Hulk has played pretty well. He missed his PK against Chile, but nearly scored a goal in regular time and was the only one who looked assertive in extra time.

Oscar hasn't played worth a shite since the Croatia match. If Brazil start Maicon he could get torched by Cuadrado's pace.
To answer your question, they appear to be like Portugal, basically funneling everything through Neymar.

Both teams are relying so very heavily on their stars. Hard to say one is relying more than the other.

Fred has disappointed and Jo is worse than Wondo.
So yeah, all Neymar for Brazil so far. Hulk played well vs Chile tho.
