If Brazil scored the second goal sooner, he'd have reacted quicker IMO.

 

So, is Fernandinho replacing Casemiro for QF?

 

Probably. My guess is that Brazil will finally start with some significant changes (we also don't know about the Marcelo/Filipe Luis situation).

Firmino as Willian replacement sounds the only logical choice. Neymar/Coutinho are untouchable.

 

Polish commentators said that Marcelo was rested here on medical team's advice so I guess it's not that bad? It was reported as a mere back spasm?

I'm genuinely curious :d

 

France in 1986 beating BRA in QF losing to FRG in SF

Italy in 1982 beating BRA in QF Group and beating FRG in Final

Poland in 1978 draw with FRG in Group stage and losing to BRA in 2nd round

Austria in 1978 losing to BRA in Group stage and losing to FRG in 2nd round

East Germany lost in 1974 to BRA in 2nd round and beat FRG in 1st round

Yugoslavia draw in 1974 with BRA in 1st round and lost to FRG in 2nd round

Poland lost in 1974 to RG in 2nd round and beat BRA in 3rd place game

Netherlands as you probably know beat BRA in 1974 2nd round but lost to FRG in the Final....but in other hand beat GDR in 2nd round so hypothetically, we should count it too (Argentina also played with East Germany and Brazil) but lost to BRA

Peru lost in 1970 to FRG in group stage and BRA in QF

England lost in 1970 to BRA in group stage and FRG in QF

Chile lost to FRG in 1962 group stage and to BRA in SF

Sweden lost in 1958 to FRG in SF and to BRA in Final

Hungary won in 1954 against GER in Group stage and against BRA in QF but then again lost to GER in Final

Yugoslavia in 1954 draw with Brazil in Group stage and lost to GER in QF

That's actually a lot more often than I thought :yikes:

 

Although I guess a big part of that is due to a very limited number of teams in the tournament, since almost all of them are long ago.

Willian was quite good today (finally) so I don't see him going anywhere. Maybe Firmino replacing Gabriel Jesus?

 

I hope Marcelo is okay 'cause Filipe Luis didn't convince me.

Finally a good match for Brazil, but...

:lol:

 

I'm rooting for Japan. If Russia could beat Spain, Japan can do it. Enough of European teams advancing to the next stage.

Also, if Japan advances, we'll have three teams (Japan, Croatia and Russia) that were long shots for the title advancing to the next round. Of course these teams have talent and heart, but also a nice share of luck, and that may help winning the title. :d:p

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal.
