Cameroon
Brazil
- After a second disappointing performance of the tournament, Cameroon should make some changes to their starting XI.
- Alex Song is suspended after a senseless red card against Croatia while Benoit Assou-Ekotto could face punishment from the management team after an altercation with teammate Benjamin Moukandjo.
- Samuel Eto'o remains a doubt through injury so veteran striker Pierre Webo will compete to start with Aboubakar up front.
- Hulk may be available once again following a muscular injury picked up in training but might not be risked against a weak looking Cameroon outfit.
- Fred could see his place come under threat after an abject performance against Mexico, though Jo is the only like-for-like replacement available to Scolari.
- The likes of Fernandinho, Hernanes, Willian and Bernard will hope to come in to the coach's thinking if he does decide to rest some players.
Messi is in the Team of the Season and Neymar is out? Joke... Messi didnt play ONE game better than Neymar during this World Cup. Neymar in 3 games scored 100% MORE GOALS than Messi in 3 WORLD CUPS!!! Come onnnn !
paulinho+hernanes+luiz gustavo < fernandinho
...and according to the notorious whoscored.com algorithms neymar's rating is lower than messi's.
Definitely fancy Chile to beat Brazil.
@SteveHyland if brazil attacks and not take refuge as holland, this game will be schizophrenic
Paulinho has been playing terribly. How on earth can he be the one starting when the likes of Fernandinho and Hernanes are on the bench? Jesus christ. The change in Brazil's effectiveness when he was substituted was astounding. I doubt Brazil would've drew against Mexico if they hadn't insisted on Paulinho the entire game. They are clearly crippling themselves with Paulinho.
@raphaell666 i always knew paulinho was fake
Surprise Neymar lasted so long.. ..must be painful playing with an inner ear infection!
fernandinho and willian should start against chile. They both r far better than hulk and paulinho
@sun- Yep, there are players not even in the Brazil squad better than Hulk and Paulinho.
@sun totally agree
Fernandinho proving he should start
Whats going on with the stats? I have seen more than just ONE dribbling for Brazil so far ...!
@neumi17. Neymar alone beat the defenders at least four or five times.
@neumi17 the tackling is screwed too
Offside Fred
Cameroon are a bunch of dusters
How bad is Cameroon's defence/keeper???
Even Lukaku would score 2x againts Cameroon.
Neymar Senior
Thiago Silva had one of the best tackles of the tournament yet it says he has made 0 tackles?
@rhysdesmond47 its the same thing for David Luiz, he just made a brilliant tackle but still its says he has no tackles?!!
As good as Brazil's defence is and was at the 2013 Confeserations Cup, they have looked a little fragile at times during this world cup!
4-0
Brazil 3-0 Cameroon
MOTM will be Alves. Brasil will come out on top with atleast a 4 goal margin(Considering Cameroon players stopped training after the Mexico game, they completely gave up, I am thinking more like 6 - nil victory for Brazil)
@galoise I wasn't so far off with my prediction.... though Cameroon surprised many (including Brazilian players!) They actually played pretty well compared to their 1st 2 games.
We hate this arrogant brazilian team .
@commandozap maybe they are not arrogant as Spain, England, Argentina or Holland but they are very overconfident
@commandozap they aren't even arrogant. They are just really passionate which is the main thing footballers should have, passion.
@commandozap No we don't!
@commandozap why always like your own comments ?
come on brasilian guysss,,you gonna make it,,wake up fred,,,wake uppp,,i love yhis world cup,, BRASIL MEANS LAND OF MIRACLES
