The final round of Group G of the 2022 World Cup preliminary round will start at the same time, four teams will play of which the African Lions, Cameroon face the Samba team, Brazil and Serbia face Switzerland.
For Brazil, who have already qualified for the round of 16 with 6 points, tonight’s game is an opportunity to test the line-up and rest the main players. But for Cameroon, who only has 1 point, this match is very important to open up opportunities to qualify, even though it is very difficult to shift the position of Switzerland, which is in second place in the standings with 3 points.
Ranked No.1 in the world, Brazil had been on a winning streak before the start of the World Cup finals. It’s no wonder that Neymar et al are the favorite seeded team to win the World Cup in Qatar, besides Argentina and England.
In the first two rounds of group matches, the Selecao lived up to expectations and achieved successive wins against Serbia and Switzerland. Qualifying from the start allowed Neymar and Danilo, who were injured in the first round, to have time to recover.
However, according to TNT, the Brazilian coach, Adenor Leonardo Bacchi, as Tite is known, will rest the main players in the final round. In a lineup like Antony, Jesus, Vinicius Jr. will be assigned as attackers.
Even though they rotate to refresh players, it’s not an exaggeration to say that Samba troops can still beat any opponent. Moreover, Cameroon has recorded only one win against Brazil in the last five matches, namely at the Confederations Cup 2003 through a single goal by Barcelona legend, Samuel Eto’o Fils.
The meeting between Brazil and Cameroon in the third round will repeat the history of the 2014 World Cup. In the same round, Brazil, which at that time had already qualified, defeated Cameroon 4-1. Paris Saint-Germain star, Neymar scored 2 goals, Fred and Fernandinho each scored 1 goal. Meanwhile, Cameroon’s goal was scored by Liverpool star Job Matip.
