After being hooked in his first match against Switzerland (1-1) on Sunday, Brazil must wake up and win this Friday against Costa Rica. For the latter, the hope of
a qualification in the 8th finals necessarily goes through a draw or even a
victory. Four years after the fiasco of the semi-final lost to Germany (7-1),
Brazilian players know that their fans would not forgive another failure of
such magnitude.

Stadium
Brazil, held in check by Switzerland (1-1),
last Sunday, must raise the head against Costa
Rica, this Friday, June 22, from 14 hours, in group D of this World Cup.
The Selecao is presented with the favorite costume against his opponent of the
day.
The surprise draw conceded to eye-catching Swiss (1-1) in the
first game of Brazil in the
competition, has thrown a chill in the workforce Auriverde. This result now
forces Philippe Coutinho's team-mates to go clear against Costa Rica and then against Serbia on 27 June.
As for the composition of the teams, coach Auriverde, should
bet on the same eleven as against Switzerland. Neymar, who appeared to be touching his ankle, seems to be getting
better and should again hold on the left of the attack, with Gabriel Jesus and
Willian at his side. As for Costa Rica, beaten by Serbia for its first game
(0-1), it is a 3-4-3 pattern that should be favored by Oscar Ramirez.
