Chinanews.com, November 19th. As a veteran team in world football, the "Samba Legion" has won the Hercules Cup five times.

In the 2018 World Cup in Russia, the Brazilian team unexpectedly lost to Belgium and fell outside the top four.

Four years later, the Brazilian team, which has Neymar, Alves, Jesus and many other stars, has made a comeback. Will they be able to avenge their shame in Qatar?

Team list:

  Goalkeepers: Alisson, Ederson, Vivaldon.

  Defenders: Militao, Thiago Silva, Marchinhos, Bremer, Alex Sandro, Danilo, Alves, Telles.

  Midfielders: Casemiro, Fabinho, Fred, Guimaraes, Paqueta, Ribeiro.

  Forwards: Neymar, Vinicius, Rafinha, Richarlison, Jesus, Anthony, Rodrygo, Martinelli, Pedro.

Core players:

  Neymar is the absolute core of the Brazilian national team. After the collapse of the World Cup 4 years ago, Neymar has been controversial because of his performance on the field.

Four years later, he urgently needs to prove himself in the World Cup in Qatar.

  The 30-year-old Neymar has become a little more mature and stable after experiencing strong winds and waves.

In Qatar, his performance will largely determine the performance of the Brazilian national team, because under coach Tite's tactical system, the Brazilian team's offense relies heavily on the "superhuman talent" of several frontcourt stars.

Team coach:

  Tite once led the Brazilian club Corinthians to win the Copa Libertadores. After taking over the coach from Dunga in 2016, Tite injected a steady style into the Brazilian team.

Although he is not well-known, Tite's experience in coaching many clubs in Brazil helped him quickly gain the support of players.

In this World Cup, Tite rejected all opinions and recruited veteran Alves.

Highlight moments:

  In 1958, under the leadership of 17-year-old Pele and Garrincha, Brazil defeated Sweden in the final and won the first World Cup championship in team history.

In 1962, successfully defended the World Cup with the original core lineup.

  In 1970, Pele's last World Cup, they beat Italy in the final and won the Rimet Cup permanently after winning three gold cups.

  In 1994, the dream combination of Romario and Bebeto helped Brazil win the World Cup again after 24 years.

In 2002, under the leadership of 3R (Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho), the Samba Army defeated Germany in the final and set a five-star legend.

Qualifying process:

  In the South American qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup, the Brazilian national team passed all the way. After defeating Colombia 1-0, they advanced to the World Cup finals 5 rounds ahead of schedule.

With the countdown to the World Cup in Qatar, "Five-Star Brazil" has become the most recognized favorite to win the championship.

This revived "Samba Legion" has a great chance to win the Hercules Cup again after 20 years.
