Controversies in the convocation

The national team coach has been criticized for calling up right-back Daniel Alves.

The player is 39 years old and plays for Pumas, however, he is not in his best phase, and does not have great physical conditioning. 

In explanation, Tite points out that individual technical quality, that is, the player's mental aspect and skill, are the main reasons for being on the list.

The big truth is that Brazil has big problems in the defensive lateral sectors. Therefore, counting on a World Cup veteran seems to be the coach's move.

With the debut of many players in the world cup, and the bad phase of Daniel Alves' competitors, Tite chooses to have players with experience above all to lead the kids.

So, did you like it? Or was someone missing, would you make any changes?

Mistakes that need to be avoided by Brazil in the World Cup 

Firstly, with the presence of players who will debut in this cup, Brazil intends to avoid mistakes that are happening frequently.

It is a fact that Brazil has been facing problems in the defensive sector in recent years.

In 2014, after the tragedy against Germany, in 2018, even having an own goal in the quarter-finals against Belgium, in other words, the team needed, above all, to rebuild the defensive sector.

With the World Cup debutants, Bremer and Éder Militão, they are the assets to change this story. 

Tite, in an interview, points out the versatility in the new defensive sector, where there are players like Danilo and Militão, who are, respectively, full-back and defender, however, they could end up fulfilling other defensive roles very well.

Furthermore, another mistake that ended up hurting Brazil a lot in the last World Cup is the group's dependence on Neymar.

In 2014, after his injury, the team scored just two goals, and ended up conceding 10, demonstrating the team's fragility in the star's absence.

Therefore, it is also clear that in recent years our team has had difficulty scoring goals.

For example, after Ronaldo Fenômeno, Brazil never had a successful number 9 again.

Will Brazil be able to avoid these mistakes and not stumble in this competition?

All we can do is wait and hope a lot. With little time left until the team debuts in the cup, we will soon find out if these errors have been corrected.

But while that doesn't happen, enjoy and check out this content we've prepared for you.
