The game-breaker.

I see a roster that is somewhat equal, while Brazil has the two better players in Neymar and Coutinho. They also have the best fullback in the world and a tank for a CDM in Casemiro who gets to line up next to Fernandinho. Brazil now also have Allison as their goalie, who was the best goalkeeper in the serie A last season. This isn’t even taking into account the chemistry that Gabriel Jesus has with Neymar and Coutinho. I take Brazil’s team every time. Anything can happen in such a short tournament but on paper and taken recent play into account I would easily take Brazil. 2014 has no bearing on this tournament, a subjective look at the rosters and I struggle to see how a neutral would choose Germany’s Team over Brazil’s.
And if Brazil loses I will gladly eat crow, it’s football and not life. Like I said earlier my resentment towards Germany has nothing to do with a sport.
