The paintings of the Brazilian coach are, at best, a cooking pot and any defeat or deflating functionality justifies the unbridled complaint to his direction. When Tite succeeded Carlos Dunga four years ago and led Brazil through the 2018 World Cup qualifiers with ease, he became Rey Midas. Brazilian lace had become obsolete and reactionary under Dunga, and the effects were poor. Tite temporarily restored the position of the Selecao and his back permeated the team of arrogance.
Recently, he was no longer Brazil’s beloved coach. Since the World Cup and the defeat to Belgium, Tite and his team have never been the same. In an interview, Tite explained that he had verified the facts of a through Kevin De Bruyne with Fernandinho’s assistance showed Tite’s determination in his career and the trauma of getting out of the quarter-finals. The defeat had come in the toughest way of the models and since then the Brazilian coach is obsessed with the fair balance of the side.
On Friday, all considerations went too far when Brazil headed to Qatar in their first qualifying match for the 2022 World Cup against Bolivia. Tite had new considerations. The Brazilians had played a final match 325 days ago, a friendly against South Korea in Abu Dhabi. How would your team react after an 11-month hiatus?
With coronavirus considerations, so little education time and the Neymar talisman suffering a back injury, Tite’s role has been reduced to selector. There was simply no time to review concepts in the educational field. Douglas Luiz of Aston Villa partnered. Up with Casemiro in the middle of the field, Neymar passed a loose component alongside Philippe Coutinho and Cebolinha on the right. Left-back Renan Lodi helped the 4 fluid fronts of the Selecao.
The assembly with Bolivia was not slow. Last year, Brazil fought the same opposition at the start of the Copa América, but this time Brazil categorically restored the herbal order. From the beginning, the game was a game of cat and mouse. has packed their own setting bench, but without any tactical application. After two missed opportunities and twelve minutes, Brazil had finished 105 passes, Bolivia two. The Bolivians have never shown any signs of resistance. Marquinhos with a header and Roberto Firmino with a touch on the hand gave Brazil an undeniable and deserved lead in the first hour, but one’s goals were perhaps secondary. The result, after all, was never in doubt.
Tite was pleased with Lodi’s skill and attitude during the game. The left-back has long been a troublesome position for Brazil, but Lodi is the forged full-back the Brazilian coach has been looking for since the World Cup. At the same time, the Atlético de Madrid player is very adept at breaking into the attack line quickly. This allows Brazil to play with five forwards. In possession, Brazil necessarily forged a 2-3-5 with Danilo strengthening the midfielder and Lodi and Cebolinha playing as wingers, with Neymar and Coutinho in the middle positions behind forward Firmino.
These players executed Tite’s plan with conviction, even opposing the sacrificed minnows of South America. Brazilian superiority reflects the way Tite organizes its team. His 11 were disciplined and carried out what the coach was looking for perfectly. Neymar and Coutinho have come wonderfully close. Of course, Bolivia’s fragility is a massive warning.
In many ways, Brazil’s 5-0 victory resembled Belgium’s 5-1 win over Iceland last month. Roberto Martinez of Belgium and his team 3-4-3 beat a lower quality opponent. There will be bigger tests for Brazil, starting with Peru on Tuesday, but the danger is that everything will be too simple for Tite’s team in this qualifying campaign. In the long run, Brazil’s regional dominance can be counterproductive: the festival is too weak and, therefore, when it counts, each and every 4 years can no longer face the most productive European teams. It’s a fear that will keep Tite awake at night, even after a lavout 5-0 win over Bolivia and the most sensible spot in the South American Qualifiers at the World Cup.
