This is true! The last tournament editions of Brazil have been extremely good defensively. Brazil learned lessons from 2014, even last World Cup they very strong on defence. When Casemiro is in the team they are one of the toughest teams in the world to break down and he really is critical for Brazil. Silva and Dani Alves both still going strong, which will make the selection over the coming years very interesting. Dani Alves winning player of the tournament at 36 at RB is pretty remarkable, even tho Jesus or Everton May of deserved it over him.
I think this tournament will be a great stepping stone for the whole team as they clearly do not need Neymar to be elite and proved that others can step up in big moments.
