As someone who grew up in the ‘90s watching those Brazil teams, it’s really hard to comprehend that this will be the 5th time in the past 6 World Cups that they’ve failed to advance past the quarterfinals. And the one time they did, they ended up on the wrong end of the most humiliating result in World Cup history.

Brazil moving forward is interesting. They don't fit in the modern game. They aren't producing elite midfielders anymore and have a lack of fullbacks.

The style these guys come up in doesn't work with the modern game.

Italy is having similar issues but on a greater scale

I saw RM score twice in two minutes to knock city out of UCL after the 80th minute.

It will never be over. Even when it’s over.

Ancelotti will be fired by end of week. This was an embarrassing game plan from him

Incredibly arrogant game plan

Would be awesome to see Norway or Columbia come out of the bottom half of the draw

Did Haaland just tie his hair with the captain armband?

This sounds weird, but they lack talent.

Never really recovered from the 7-1 shackling in Brazil to be honest. Been a steady decline since

There were more predictions for Norway on this relative small Soccer Board than I saw in the entirety of establishment sports media. Shows how Brazil's legacy taints the perception of their current squad.

That was more worthy of a red than anything. I’ll wait for the VAR review

I'm watching Norway be more technical on the ball than Brazil....

Unreal.
