Casemiro’s goal, which came out of nowhere, was the difference between a loss for Brazil against a resolute Switzerland team and a win for the South American nation. As a result, Brazil advanced from the group stage of the World Cup with two wins under their belt.
Vinicius Junior thought he had given the Brazilians the lead early in the second half, but his effort was ruled out for offside after he had excellent close control of the ball. Vinicius Junior’s effort was ruled out for offside after he had excellent close control of the ball. In comparison to the second half, the first half had an extremely limited number of opportunities worth mentioning.
Casemiro made the Swiss pay for their negative play with a brilliant strike that flew into the top corner from an angle after the Swiss had shown very little attacking output of their own throughout the entirety of the match at Stadium 974. The Swiss were made to pay for their poor play as a result of this goal.
1. Did we know he had this in him?

Steady It was said that Manchester United was going to sign Eddie, isn’t that right? There were rumors that Manchester United was going to sign Eddie. It was necessary for them to have a reliable and experienced midfielder who was able to keep things running smoothly for them even when they were in a difficult position.
There is a great deal more to being a Casemiro than that.
The former Real Madrid player has already proven in English football that he is adept at finding the back of the net, most recently by scoring the late equalizer against Chelsea. There is no doubt that the former Real Madrid player has a good sense for finding the back of the net. What do you think of this?
It was a magnificent and searing strike, and the noise that followed it nearly brought this stadium’s many shipping containers crashing to the ground.
2. Big shoes to fill

Brazil was preparing to compete without their talisman, Neymar.
You’re never more than a few feet or seconds away from seeing or hearing about Neymar in Doha.
The Brazilian, who plays for Qatari-owned Paris Saint-Germain, is one of the World Cup’s faces. He stares back at you from the Metro’s video screens and appears in advertisements played before and during games.
With injured players dropping like flies in the run-up to the tournament, the organizers would have been desperate for him to stay fit, but not as desperate as Brazil.
Without him, their attack lacks spark and dynamism, as evidenced by a first half that was largely incident-free.
Richarlison is a fantastic forward who can score spectacular goals, as he demonstrated in the first game, but Brazil must find ways to get him into those positions, which will be more difficult without Neymar to call on.
3. Inspiration or intimidation from on high?

When you play for Brazil, there will undoubtedly be several greats who have gone before you, and they will often be there to keep an eye on you as well. When you play for Brazil, you will be surrounded by legends.
The big screen showed images of three World Cup winners, Cafu, Roberto Carlos, and Ronaldo, all sitting together and looking perplexed by the events unfolding in front of their eyes as Tite’s team struggled to get started in the first half. Cafu, Ronaldo, and Roberto Carlos all won their respective tournaments.
They’ll argue that things were much different in their day, and that the style we associate with South Americans was noticeably absent. This is what we mean when we say “noticable by its absence.”
4. Rodrygo the super sub

Rodrygo has given Brazil a new lease on life.
Rodrygo has made it a habit to show that he is more effective after coming off the bench, which no player wants to be labeled as, but he has done so for both club and country.
The Real Madrid player’s contributions as a substitute were crucial in Real Madrid’s Champions League victory the previous year. He was providing a spark for a Brazil team that had struggled in the first half of the match.
Rodrygo, who came on as a replacement for West Ham’s underwhelming Lucas Paqueta, wasted no time in charging at the Swiss defense and trying to enliven a bored crowd.
Despite the fact that Tite probably prefers him as a substitute, he may have done enough to start the next game.
5. The Swiss defense does not have any weaknesses.
As a result, following their opening game, in which they overcame Cameroon 1-0, the Swiss put in a strong showing. The Swiss are a difficult team to beat, even if they are unlikely to win many accolades for artistic brilliance.
It’s a difficult one.
Coach Murat Yakin has molded players who have been with the squad for a long time, such as Yann Sommer, Ricardo Rodriguez, and Granit Xhaka, as well as younger players who are becoming role models, such as Ruben Vargas and Fabian Rieder, into a cohesive unit that works tirelessly for each other.
They were eventually destroyed thanks to a stroke of genius.
