Stop Underestimating Brazil.
Brazil is Brazil❤❤❤
They may not be the Best but they are a Decent team….
😎 having watched Brazil against Morocco – the magic is gone – Zico, Eder, Branco, Dunga and Roberto Carlos – those guys had technique – they were allowed to use it – now every player is kicking the ball the same way – boring to watch – very ordinary players…..
1:59 – I don't think Vini is generational. He's probably on a similar level to Kvara in that they're both world-class wingers but not on a level like that of Neymar or Ronaldinho
Estevao & Endrick are Jogo Bonito. But they are on the bench for Paqueta & Igor Thiago.
oh no….this the worse coach of the all times. THE WORSE….coach. But the coach is assisted by the most unrilaible people of the word in cbf. that f… mess came to pitch 12 years ago, and simply doesn´t go away…!!! Do we have better players to play for the time? oh yeah…but they are on the bench or even were not called up. talent we have enough to beat 95% of the teams….but our super coach is a completly lost!!!
Obviously, two of Brazil's starting attackers are injured (Rodrygo, Estêvão, plus Neymar). Then, Ancelotti left off Gabriel Jesus & João Pedro. Those are huge mistakes. And, Endrick should be starting. Another Ancelotti mistake.
The need to put Rayan and Endrick in let Raphina sit on the bench and come in 2nd half.Also Casemiro and Pacqueta on the bench
Not worst generation but worst 1st Eleven,,, and brazil dont have quality midfield at all
WHY oh WHYYYY is Endrick NOT the starter number 9?! It's so EASY: Vini + Endrick + Raphinha. Done. Do it, Carletto!! Enough ego, bc you don't like the kid. All the other forwards lack the talent in comparison to these 3!! Neymar is another story, he needs to be fit.
So when morocco outclassed them than its the worst generation. Lol they can't give Morocco the credits.. damn what an insult for the brazilian players whos playing now. And Hakimi is the BEST right back in the world not one of the best.
Called up Ederson from Atalanta…😂 Have you not watched the news? He is a Manchester United player since like 1-2 weeks back.
Americans dont understand Football… You even call it soccer😂🤦🤷 and now all the hate against Brazil… This is the new modern Brazil generation. The Joga Bonito is long gone have you sleept for 10 years? They didnt get Ancelotti in to play joga Bonito football… Brazil will turn things around. Dont count them out to early.
They just need a better creative midfield… Guimaraes was terrible this match
Talking about strikers, people forget that they had Fred for years, like i dont want to disrespect anyone but Fred, they went from Ronaldo R9 to Fred, so when you mention Igor Thiago i dont think its as bad as it has been for Brazil only difference now is the fans are tired of the poor performances, because brasil were a penalty shootout away from getting to the semi finals and after that its all about who plays best to push through tired legs, because Argentina also had a penalty shootout but ended up going all the way
They are not the worst, they just played against a great Moroccan team. I just hate why these commentators doesn't give Morocco the true credit. It's all fake. It's the same with Croatia they never get the credit they deserve.
Worst generation?
List of key players missing from brazils squad:
– Rodrygo (CAM)
– Estevao (RW)
– Joao Pedro (ST)
– Wesley (RB)
Neymar is also not available yet.
This is a coach who doesnt know how to play tactical attacking football..and he also picked bunch of old washed players..sorry..they are not good enough..this team need an overhaul..Endrick and Rayan need to start!
Way u guys dont go sleep
Are you searching for Jogo-bonita in 2026 in the days of highpress. Every team is trying to recatch possession in 5 seconds. Nothing doing. Now teams are kept waiting for opponents mistakes to take advantage and score.
One minute questions: Is that playing beautiful football is the duty of Brazil only? Why you idiots have no such complaint when Argentina, Germany etc. playing?
You don't know any other way to make content after a Brazil match.
Is the premier league-fication of the team. Bruno, Igor they are stars there, but they playing style is ugly for Brazilian standards
Where is endricky?????
Not the worst, but they should be doing way better with that squad. Ancelotti hasn't really moved the needle. The old man gets paid either way—win or lose. Where's the incentive?
First of all, it's "joga bonito." Secondly, yes, this is the worst squad.
2014 was the worst team we ever put together. So we already saw what bad is. The 2026 actually has some stars in it
Brazil had their Argentina 2022 Qatar moment today—right here on American soil.
They forgot who they were. Played like scared little boys against a team that outplayed them for ninety percent of the match.
No Brazilian football. No rhythm. No identity. They could not find their own man on the field. Instead, they gifted Morocco pass after pass. At one point, the ball never left Brazil's half. Morocco dominated so completely, you would have thought Brazil was the underdog.
I did not recognize those men in the yellow jerseys.
Aside from that brief moment when Vinny remembered his ancestry and scored the equalizer, the Samba boys played uninspiring, lifeless, forgettable football.
Morocco? They walked off that pitch with an air of superiority—deservedly so. With a few adjustments, I see them going very deep into this tournament.
As for the yellow jerseys? The clock is ticking.
They better not even unpack their bags. It will make it easier to grab their suitcases and head home early.
ASE.
Worst generation? Or you taking a leaf out of Ronaldinho 's book and recent comments about the squad..Can anyone really look me in the eye and tell me the 2014 squad's attack line with Fred, Jo, Bernard, is better than Balon D'or contenders Vinicius, Raphinha and Matheus Cunha, Rodrygo, Endrick of this generation..Were the midfielders Renato Agusto, Luiz Gustavo better than what Casemiro, Bruno Guimareas are now… this current gen are much better than the thrash we witnessed in 2014..
People forgetting who 🇧🇷 is
From ghana 🇬🇭 here,go Morocco 🇲🇦, viva africa. i feel Morocco is about to pull a suprise…Brazil is beatable.
This segment is setting itself up to be clipped 😅
Bro that's a blasphemous statement
Brazil today is nowhere near the Brazil of the past. Anyone who says otherwise never saw the players dominating the last time the world cup was held in the states. There are great individuals in the team but are they good enough to pull it off this year? We're all hoping for the best.
Moroccans know Brazil is still Brazil, even if they bring players from the streets … stop disrespecting Brazil, if Morocco wins today, it’s against one of the best teams in the world
2010 and 2014 were by far one of the worst Brazilian teams man 😭
The guy is lying, Brazil didn't finish sixth

You will be ashamed when this team wins game per game.God bless you Brazil
Very narrow and lazy analysis.
Nahhh this guy is full of sh.t 😅na na. You will see Brasil!
If you imply “worst” the Brazilian way of the old to play then yes cuz these players have that but play tactically. Biggest problem with Brazil is the full backs and the midfield. Without casemiro it would’ve been doomed. And when Neymar comes into play I hope he’s more of an attacking midfielder to create those balls from the middle. That would give the chance for the wings to open up as well. Still it is a far better team that played in 2010.
It's Dolce Vita Brazil now.🎉
Worst? Must’ve forgot Neymar’s supporting cast of forwards in 2014. FRED, JO, BERNARD.
This take is laughable.
Useless analysis
All this disrespect better be here after we arrive in strength. As a Brazilian I can tell you we have had worst, in 2014!!! Qualifiers chaos is over, Carlo settled things. Put some respect on our name 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷!
I can't believe you have not been saying this since 2014. 2014 was worse than this
England above Spain in that all-time ranking is beyond ridiculous!
Pathetic journalism
This is a controversial take but I feel what used to make Brazil so dominant because they were they were the closest thing to an African team in the World Cups when African teams were not allowed to compete so they had such an athleticism and skills advantage over non-diverse European teams, that allowed them to rack up many world cups. It was the Africaness in Brazil that gave them the Jota bonita and now I feel Brazil has become too European and just another team and now. European teams have become more diverse and the Brazilian type players are all in Europeans teams like Yamal, Nico William, Olise, Musiala, VVD, Bellingham, Mbappe, Eze, Saka, Palmer, Trent, Dembele and so on. It is harder to change culture and when you have a country like Brazil where people aspire to be European, there are side effects to this cultural nuance.
we all know that vini doesn't get the service like he does at Real Madrid when Mbappe is not playoing.
Using worst with names like Raphinha, Vinicius, Alisson, Marquinhos, Gabriel Magalhaes…all top players for top teams…feels a bit forced. There's not a current team in international football that comes close to past Brazil teams.
