In my own opinion I would rather say its the end of an era for the Brazilian national team and its time they start all over again to build a formidable team that can replicate the feats of the Brazilian team of 98 and 2002. Similarly this was the case of Spain after winning the European cup and the world cup respectively yet they began to  suddenly decline due to some factors that were beyond their control, for example, change of players, coaches, retirement of some players in the team, injuries etc which makes it difficult for some national teams to continue to dominate in the world stage for a long period of time.
You are right, one thing I observed about this Brazilian team is that they want an immediate success and it's not possible. They think they can replicate what their older generations did without putting in years of planning and building, thereby placing a heavy weight on the shoulders of their young squads. They should take time and build a team that's capable of winning the world cup maybe in the next two editions ahead. They should forget about 2026 would cup and fucus more in 2030  edition, and start building the team now. That's exactly what Spain did and 2026 world cup is likely going to be their own to win. Because they are capable of winning any team currently.

What is different is that the current Indonesian squad is very different from when Bahrain beat Indonesia with a very convincing score at that time. Now Indonesia is strengthened by many players who play in several prestigious leagues in the world, yes, even though they are part of a team that is not considered strong enough, but of course what we see is experience. Bahrain on paper is no better than Saudi Arabia and Australia and when facing both countries Indonesia managed to hold a draw, that will be a good capital and of course it will increase the confidence of the players. In this group, Indonesia is actually the weakest country when viewed from the ranking, but for now the ranking is just a number for Indonesia seen from the previous 2 matches.
Of course the squad is completely different because in the past was full of Indonesian, while now they're full of Holland. It's no longer Indonesia to be honest, it's Netherlands v2.0. Netherlands is currently at the 7th rank in the world, it's not surprising why Netherlands v2.0 can qualify for World Cup and give a fight against higher rank countries.

Australia should've secure 3 points because they've score one more goal in the injury time, it's surprising China can score one goal.



Furthermore, it is indeed correct that the Indonesian national team currently consists of many diaspora players, most notably hailing from the Netherlands. It tends to give the national team somewhat of the appearance of “Netherlands v2.0” because many of them are people of Indonesian descent born and who have developed their football careers in the Netherlands. A few have even represented the Dutch national team in their youth categories. Nevertheless, as long as they give their best on the pitch and have the intention and hope of making Indonesia proud, that is what matters. What is key is their commitment to make Indonesia proud on the international stage, and that is an initiative I will always support.

And it is commonplace in modern football, where many countries tap into the potential of their diaspora players. Not only Indonesia, but countries in Europe as well often fill the depth of their national teams with players who have a diaspora background, especially from Africa.

This will be a big surprise if Indonesia can win Bahrain on their home. this match will be revenge Indonesia for their defeat 10-0 a while ago. in terms of quality Bahrain not even better than Saudi which I think Indonesia can easily handle it. But again, Indonesia performance is still not good, they will disappoint fans if too much praised, and when I look how the composition the Bahrain squad is look the same as they defeat Indonesia while ago, so Indonesia team must have to be alert, This is not impossible bahrain use the same strategy to do the same thing to defeat Indonesia. I hope the naturalization player are not tired as they play on their club before to pass Indonesia to the next round qualification.

today match will be a big challenge for Indonesia, especially so far Indonesia has a bad history with a history of crushing defeats to Bahrain in the previous match, but the big changes that are happening today in indonesian squad certainly cannot make head to head as a reference for us to underestimate them, this time,  Indonesian squad is much stronger with players who are experienced in Europe,  the majority of their players play in the international league and certainly bring  valuable experience that can be an important capital in facing Bahrain later, Bahrain may not be better than Saudi Arabia or Australia, and the draw against the both teams shows that Indonesia has great potential to win the match later in my opinion.

<> now I'm curious because Bolivia is going to play all its games at the "EL Alto" stadium and it is an impressive altitude there, the oxygen is not the same, the players are getting more tired, the players from other countries who go to Bolivia and from there go to Colombia there are many probabilities that they lose.

If the players haven't figured out how to deal with high altitudes by now, well, they deserve to lose. I mean, come on, no respectable player or coach will complain anymore. This is modern football Smiley Bolivia past 8 home matches, only 3 wins, 1 draw, 4 losses. So yeah man, it's not an issue anymore.

And about Brazil, no Vinicius so they might actually win big this time Wink

The outcome of this match will be unknown till the end of the game, so we have to wait until the end of the game to see which team can win.

Man you really are Sherlock Holmes lol

According to the squad of the Brazil team, Brazil team is likely to win this match, because they already have Rodrigo in the attack and Raphinha will be on the side, so many gamblers are betting on it. However, this season Brazil team has won one match and lost all other matches. The performance of the Brazilian team has been very bad, because the squad of the Brazilian team is completely empty without experienced players.  
The number of gamblers against the Brazil team is the highest, and more gamblers favor the Brazil team. The outcome of this match will be unknown till the end of the game, so we have to wait until the end of the game to see which team can win.

Brazil is a traditional team, from this traditional team we have seen many legendary players who have made history in football. You claim that Brazil played well in 2002 but here I would like to add something to you. For example, Brazil has played well in these 22 years, but they have not won any major tournament. 

After 2002, Brazil won the Copa America several times and were defeated in the final. It doesn't mean that Brazil is not going well now, but it doesn't mean that Brazil doesn't have good quality players. There are still good quality players in Brazil but the biggest problem is that there is no experienced manager in Brazil right now to give direction to these good quality players. When a good manager takes over Brazil will once again become one of the best teams in FIFA.
The Brazilian national team has never missed participation in World Cup and their poor performance in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers makes it little doubtful whether Brazil will have to miss out for the first time? Current standings of CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup qualifier  Brazil national teams on 5th standings position and bit difficult opportunity qualifying to World Cup 2026 because have few points remaining from Bolivia and Paraguay national teams have 9 points.

Upcoming two matches later facing Chile and Peru, have bad news for Brazil national team because their important players Vinicius Jr and Eder Militao have out from squad after injuring. Brazil need six points of two matches reach to higher standings place and get easily for qualifying to FIFA World Cup 2026 because have 9 points remaining from Argentina national teams who lead the first position place.
That is one of the good thing about them. I have not seen Brazil loss out  or didn't qualify for any World, I have not. And I don't know how many games are still left for them to play and qualify in the world cup again. What is happening in my country about the world cup qualifier is worst than Brazil performance. The charges to qualify in the World Cup is very slim in my country.
It is clear that this is an era of decline for the Brazilian national team squad, the selection of players and the chemistry in their squad is gone and there is nothing to build on, having players who play in Europe do not have big egos and in the end all the games become messy, poor management will have an impact on the current squad at least the Brazilian football federation is able to give them confidence, because this will be history if Brazil does not qualify for the 2026 World Cup.

When will Brazil be able to build that strong team, their team is already having problems especially with their coach. We have seen many here saying that their current performance is deteriorating because of the coach. I have never seen a Brazilian team dominate the opposition since Neymar Jr left Brazil due to injury. Looking at their game on the field now, it seems like they depended on one player. They still have many potential players in their team but their performance is not improving. How shaky the current performance of Brazil's team may be will become clear only if the matches of the CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifiers are observed. In the next few days, they may be on the field to face Chile in one of the World Cup qualifiers matches.

Now the Indonesian squad has been strengthened by several names of players who have experience in the International League, Bahrain defeated the Indonesian squad very naturally because they fell into a group where the average team already had experience playing at world level such as Saudi Arabia and Australia. even so, the Indonesian squad was still able to draw when facing the two largest countries in Asia even though Indonesia is the weakest team in this group, they were able to play very well in their last two matches.

Indonesia vs Bahrain match will take place tomorrow and it is reported that Indonesian goalkeeper Maarten Paes has arrived there and has undergone joint training session, but there is no certainty whether he will really be included in the main squad for the match that will take place tomorrow.
What is clear in statement delivered by the coach shows that the medical team is still continuing to see how Maarten Paes injury recovery is progressing and for definite decision on how his condition will continue to defend Indonesia will be based on how his recovery is progressing, if possible and ready to play we can definitely see Maarten Paes on the field, this is something that fans really want.
I see the opportunities for Indonesia and Bahrain are almost equal which even the odds of both can be said to be quite high, I take two betting options in one slip and that is Double Chance draw or Indonesia also Over 1.5 and in this slip I get odds @2.19.

Bahrain national football team is favorite for the next match. We will watch that match and everybody has eye on that match because both teams are good teams and can play well . We are watching the FIFA World Cup Asian qualifiers and Bahrain team is ahead because they got 3 points with -4GD by playing 2 matches and Indonesia team has 4th position and got 2 points . Bahrain team performance is comparatively good because they won 2 matches out of 5 last matches and in the comparison, Indonesia  team won only 1 match in last five matches. Both teams are of same level and both teams have to give good effort to win this match and large audience will watch this match and players should have confidence on them

It is not true that a team like Brazil will not qualify for the main stage of the World Cup. Brazil has qualified to play in the main stage of every World Cup so far and we have faith in Brazil that they will continue to do so. But when we remember that former four-time World Cup winning team Italy has never qualified for the main stage of the World Cup in any World Cup tournament, we have doubts that Brazil can really qualify for the main stage of the 2026 World Cup. You said Brazil has consistently underperformed in major tournaments like the World Cup since 2006, and the biggest proof of that is the fact that it's been a long time since the team failed to qualify for the semi-finals. 

In the last few World Cup tournaments we have seen Brazil exit from the quarter finals and now it is doubtful whether Brazil will be able to play in the main stage of the World Cup.

Brazil although struggling as a team, it's really hard to imagine them failing to qualify for the main stage of the championship. In fact, I think they could well reach at least the quarter-finals. Their coach says they will be in the final, I don't know, we'll see, because to get to the final of the World Cup you have to be in much better shape than Brazil is at the moment.

There is no doubt that Brazil is a country that has a lot of potential in football, they have a distinctive football and so on, and it is supported by famous players who were born in this country. But it is very unfortunate when they experience a decline like this which is caused by several things, one of which is mismanagement so that it has a direct impact on the performance of the Brazilian national team.
In fact, if we talk about players, we don't have to look hard for players from this country who already have big names and even star names. So logically they should be able to show something better than what they are showing now. But unfortunately all that did not happen, I hope they will quickly find their identity as a football country full of talent.

Well tomorrow the South American qualifiers start, I have one thing in mind, Brazil really misses Neymar who is the only player for me that the Jogo Bonito has, the rest of the players are very good, but they lack that ingredient of taking Brazil to the top just with their "style", when you talk about having a team under the direction of a largely technical team things are not going to work out, now I'm curious because Bolivia is going to play all its games at the "EL Alto" stadium and it is an impressive altitude there, the oxygen is not the same, the players are getting more tired, the players from other countries who go to Bolivia and from there go to Colombia there are many probabilities that they lose.

Brazil still have the charge to qualify in the world cup because in the table Argentina has 18 points, Columbia 16 points, Uruguay 15 points, Ecuador 11 points, Brazil 10 points, Venezuela 10 points, Paraguay 9 points, Bolivia 9 points, Chile 5 points and finally Peru 3 points. And with this analysis of they play well in their next Matches then they have the opportunity to qualify.
World Cup Qualification CONMEBOL Table 2026
Brazil still have a chance to qualify but my emphasis is that if they keep underperforming, they might lose out. As I said in my previous post, only six teams from the group will progress to the next stage automatically, and Brazil is in fifth position. Now, the team who are occupying the seventh and eighth positions just have one point less than Brazil. So these teams also have the chance of overtaking the Seleção Canarinho if they lose any game. It is just sad that teams like Colombia, Uruguay and Ecuador have more points than Brazil. The table clearly shows that the Brazilian national team needs all the help they can get.

That is one of the good thing about them. I have not seen Brazil loss out  or didn't qualify for any World, I have not. And I don't know how many games are still left for them to play and qualify in the world cup again. What is happening in my country about the world cup qualifier is worst than Brazil performance. The charges to qualify in the World Cup is very slim in my country.
From the quick research I just did now, Brazil is the only national team that has been in all the world cups, and they have the overall best performance. They might not be performing well in the qualifies but they will always look for means to qualify for the World Cup.

But they have to be careful with the 2026 CONMEBOL World Cup qualifiers because they are in a tight corner. They have nine points and are in the fifth position and the 6th position is Venezuela with the same point. The first six teams will qualify for the final qualification tournament, the seventh will play in the continental tournament, and the others will be disqualified. I said Brazil is in a critical condition because Bolivia and Paraguay, who are 8th and 7th on the tournament table, both have nine points. So Brazil might be overtaken by these countries if they drop points.

Since Flamengo was sacked because of poor performance of his former team their is no need to bring to coach Brazil national team that is already struggling. Brazil needs a vibrant coach that is performing very well as a coach  not a coach who couldn't make a team to win trophies from where he is coming from. Brazil has a good record when it comes good performance in football,  I think in search of a coach that will manage the  team, it should be a coach that is competent based on psst experience and the present.

If things should be put in order I believe Brazil as a team will bounce back because they already have talented players. I just hope if working on the team is what can be done fast so that by the next world cup game the team is already stable.
Brazil should try a foreigner coach. It wouldn't hurt to give this strategy a try... They have tried with brazilian coaches so many times and failed miserably, that to go for a foreigner one seems a reasonable alternative. Many national teams have already done that and saw their teams' performances raising considerably, turning into very competitive teams as consequence.

Even brazilian clubs have been doing this successfuly. Look Palmeiras with the portuguese Abel and Botafogo with the portuguese Arthur Jorge. Both have been a great reinforcement for their respective teams, as both clubs are leading brazilian championship.

Now the national team also needs a fresh and innovative approach. Otherwise, I fear they won't be able to compete from equal to equal against great teams of our time, like the Argentinian one, for an example.

When a good manager takes over Brazil will once again become one of the best teams in FIFA.
In my own opinion I would rather say its the end of an era for the Brazilian national team and its time they start all over again to build a formidable team that can replicate the feats of the Brazilian team of 98 and 2002. Similarly this was the case of Spain after winning the European cup and the world cup respectively yet they began to  suddenly decline due to some factors that were beyond their control, for example, change of players, coaches, retirement of some players in the team, injuries etc which makes it difficult for some national teams to continue to dominate in the world stage for a long period of time.
