South Korea made a dramatic entrance to the round of 16 in the FIFA World Cup 2022 and now they will face Brazil in the knockout stage. Brazil vs South Korea is scheduled to take place Tuesday at Stadium 974 – Ras Abu Road.
Brazil are performing at its best and won’t have any chance for South Korea to dominate the match. South Korea defeated Portugal in their last group-stage game and that would have given them a major boost to their confidence.
Brazil has dominated Group G with 2 wins and 6 points. However, they lost their last group-stage game against Cameroon which was one of the biggest upsets in the tournament.
Brazil won’t have much difficulty controlling the game against South Korea and their attackers won’t find much difficulty in scoring goals.
When everyone lost hope in South Korea, it was then the Taegeuk Warriors against Portugal and played with their full potential.
South Korea defeated Portugal by 2-1 and their group stage win would have given them a major confidence boost to face the 5-time Champions in the knockout stage.
Brazil Team Team News
Brazil played their part really well in the group stage games by defeating Serbia and Switzerland in their first two games. Their loss against Cameroon won’t affect their performance in the knockout stage.
The good news for the whole team is that Neymar Jr. is back after recovering from his calf injury which he earned during the Serbia game. Brazil has a strong defence and Neymar’s presence will give a huge push to the attack of the team.
