Their superstar Neymar has predicted five teams that are likely to be a challenge to Brazil, who are about to win the title in the World Cup in Qatar. The player thinks that one Latin American country and four European countries will be a big challenge for them.
Since Brazil won the title in 2002, only teams from Europe have won the cup. Neymar and his team are coming to put an end to this. Five-time world champions Brazil will face Serbia, Switzerland and Cameroon in Group ‘G’ in the first round of the World Cup. The first match is on November 24.
Neymar believes that Argentina, France, Germany, England and Belgium are the teams that can be a challenge for Brazil. England is the team that has not won in the last six matches. With the withdrawal of key players such as Paul Pogba and N’Golo Kante, France are worried and have won only one of their last six matches. Argentina, meanwhile, are in blistering form. They are coming into the game under the leadership of Lionel Messi, confident of their 35-match unbeaten streak.
Although injured striker Timo Werner will not be able to play, Germany are star-studded. However, recent performances have not been that great. Belgium have good players but many of them lack their former strength. With world-class players in every position and substitutes to match, Brazil has many contenders for the title.
