Obviusly Brazil can come back super easy on tracks, because they already have a huge mass of super talented player, Vincius Rodrygo and the new Endrick can make a party if they want, but until now they show nothing for brazil.

The main question now is. Neymar is gonna be or take part in the next world cup with Brazil? In this cup they really need him.

This won't be as easy as you think. Teams like Germany and England are trying to hire young players in the league and they will try to let the younger players grow and use these talents. While I think in Brazil they didn't do that from the start and they just believe in traditions where they think they have to just use Brazilian coaches who can damage the team.
I think Brazil can start the process of getting improved if they decide to change the strategy of managing the team.

Currently Brazil team performance is disappointing everyone, their team performance is not good. Brazil are the team with the most titles in football history but their current performance looks like they may never win the FIFA World Cup. When Ronaldinho, Roberto Carlos, Ronaldo played together in the Brazil team, it was their golden age. Since then most of the players in their squad have not performed well except Neymar.

Everyone knows Neymar Jr. is a great player but he has more injuries than matches due to which he is inconsistent with his team. I think the Selecao now need the right players for the number 10 and number 9 jerseys who can light up and put in match-winning performances. After winning the title in the 2002 FIFA World Cup, the Brazilian team could not perform well in any other FIFA World Cup.
This happens time to time. We should realize that we are talking about a team that is not doing all that weirdly, it's normal for them to have a situation where it is going to take a while, and I think Brazil has a period where they are just not that good at all. You can't expect a team to be great for centuries, they will always have bad periods here and there, which was theirs this season, and I think they will get better with time.

This is why I believe that the best way to go with this situation would be just focusing on how to get better, and ignore the current situation they are in right now. The greater the benefit the better for them if they keep figuring out the issue. Argentina is great these days and they will be the one who will win it, but even Uruguay is better than Brazil if you ask me.

I've been following the national team since 1996, I saw Romario, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo,... seeing Brazilian Team today is a total displeasure. Too bad.

Oh, Ronaldinho's times were amazing... He was making a really great duo with Neymar those times as well.  Smiley  Football was way better to watch then because we were able to see some really good skill shows in it too.

But these days they are killing it with boring set of tactics.  Sad  I wouldn't like to say every team is like that but most of them are. For example wingers aren't the same anymore. We aren't watching them using some skill moves to get past their opponent. Thankfully there are some players like Yamal growing who likes to play old school about it.

Anyway, about Brazil's future I can't say I see it bright. They still need to put a lot more effort into it. There are skilled players but not a good team chemistry I'm afraid.

Lolz. But we pray that they should do well in their next matches. NFF (NigeriaN Football Federation) is planning to bring back the former Super Eagles coach Jose Peseiro back to the Super Eagles before the next matches but I see that move as a disgrace because you sacked the person because he was incompetent to coach the team but now that there is nobody to coach or head the team and you are going back to abandon or sacked head coach to come and lead the team. Do you think the person would do well? I still  not believe they will qualify in the forthcoming world cup qualifiers.
The Nigerian Football Federation is just confused. They recently sacked Finidi George after a few months and want to bring back a coach they sacked recently. I don't know why they think Jose Peseiro is the right coach for the Super Eagles. The main focus of the Nigerian National team is to qualify for the World Cup and I don't think the Portuguese football manager will give them a guarantee. He would claim that his past sack reduced the chances of the team to qualify, so he shouldn't be held responsible.

Many coaches are in the market and can be bring the desired impact. I will prefer they gamble with Emmanuel Emunike in this qualifies for the World Cup. He would be cheaper and more effective than Jose Peseiro. NFF should know that Jose was not a fantastic coach so there is no need to bring in an average coach.
Since they don't have direction then after Jose peseiro and if he didn't do well then they will bring back Finidi George again. A confused leadership with confused NFF. Even the coach who led Benin Republic to win Nigeria was coached in Nigeria and they sacked him. Jose Peseiro to d he comes, Nigeria will still not qualify because the foundation to qualify in the world cup has been destroyed and to amend that road is not easy. The problem with Finidi George was too much enemy in the club. The good players which he would have used were abandoned because they have issue with him from one thing to another. And now he has created another one with Osimhen. We just pray Super Eagles play the final with other qualify team.

It's like Endrick said in another recent interview: 'some brazilian players could be already on vacation (from their european teams), but they have come here, because it was their dream (to play and win Copa America). And they have been training here for 30, 40 days, under the sun'.

For many people it sounded like brazilian players consider they are doing a favour or sacrifice by playing at the national team, having to train under the sun for another month, while they could be already on vacation.

If that is what happens, they really don't care about anything at all! If we read between the lines we will see they were actually concerned about their vacations since the beginning, at that is all... It's contradictory, though, that in the past soccer players had much inferior wages, but played more passionated, compared to nowadays where players have huge paychecks, but don't display any passion for what they do.

Exactly! the players are thinking about holidays and serving their clubs, watching some players playing for the Brazilian team is disgusting, there's no blood, there's no determination, there's no desire... The coach should see this and never call up these players again, bring others who want to play... but don't... insist on these parasites who only serve to use the national team as a showcase and get better contracts.

The way the Brazilian team has been playing, it is entirely possible that they will not even be able to qualify for the next World Cup.

I've been following the national team since 1996, I saw Romario, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo,... seeing Brazilian Team today is a total displeasure. Too bad.

Semi final matches are very tough for the teams which team qualified for semi final. But we enjoyed semi final of Argentina national football team match with Canada team. But Canada team could not do any single goal in the whole match as was expected. But Argentina Football team fulfilled the expectations of their fans because there are millions of fans of Argentina team in the Whole World because they performed well in all tournaments and always a winner. So people like to watch them when they play ,  Alvarez did first goal of the match and that time was great for the team because Alvarez did his duty and now other players had to play well for team to win the match. Other players also gave their hundred percent and we saw team work because they were struggling to qualify for final and after that Messi did second goal of the match and match bent to Argentina Football team side and after that no goal happened by any team and we saw excellent competition in  this  match.

Basically Brazil team is losing with any team now, their performance is so poor that they are very likely to miss the FIFA World Cup qualifiers this time. Because the five-time World Cup winning Brazil team is now so weak that it has never been eliminated from any World Cup in the past, but is likely to be eliminated in this World Cup. 

Because despite their reputation in the past, they are now performing so shamelessly and fans are getting angry at them. The Brazil team is weakened by the absence of key star Neymar. However, if Neymar returns to this World Cup, then the Brazilian team will definitely be able to perform strongly.

Brazil in the Copa America is undefeated. They are on second place at Group D, with two draws and one win.

I think people just like to hate Brazil, but in reality, they are one of the best teams around.

Brazil will clearly qualify for the world cup, and maybe it will end up winning it again, as they have done for 5 times already, the best record in the world.

They lost and I didn't read anywhere talking about dismissing the coach, talking about hiring a foreign coach with great experience, talking about giving power to the coach. nothing changed even with defeat, so don't expect something good to come from Brazil in the next 2 years, it will be the same thing that has been seen, they will have difficulties to qualify for the world cup, and even when they reach the world cup they will have difficulties to move on to another stage and not win the World Cup. You can't be optimistic when you don't see concrete good changes
Today I watched an interview with former Brazilian national team striker Romário. He said exactly what you said and he also added that today's players don't value the World Cup as much as players did in the past. Today they only use it for marketing and to get good contracts. Players don't give their all on the field like they used to. In fact, sports seem to have taken a back seat. If they win, that's fine. If they don't, that's fine too! It's like: it doesn't matter.

I think this is for the continent group stages of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. In the African Continent, Group C,  Nigeria will not qualify because their performance is very poor in the time. At least they qualified to play the group stage in the world cup but this time, they will disqualified in the qualifiers stage.


Rwanda, South Africa and Benin Republic has the highest points of 7 each while Lesotho has 5 points and Nigeria 3 points then Zimbabwe has 2 points.

Quite alright, we can not justify the underperformance of Nigeria in this world cup qualifying but it's also difficult to predict their final position in the table. There are still many games ahead to play which we are not sure of the outcome yet. It's too early to make conclusion that Nigeria can not qualify for the 2026 world cup. I know it will be difficult but it is very possible mathematically to qualify.

Nigeria only need to win all their remaining games in this group and the chance to qualify will be revived. Nigeria squad is capable of beating every team in this group if they have a good couch who can manage the squad effectively. I think there is no motivation from the couch because it is very obvious that Nigeria is not playing this qualifying game with the same spirit they used to play AFCON. Until it is all over, there chances is not completely dashed.
It is very unlikely that Nigeria is going to win all their remaining matches at least From the way I've seen them play, I don't think they have hope to qualify for the world cup. The last match they played resulted in the resignation of their coach finidi George as the NFF raised a lot of concerns, up till now I don't even think they've been able to put themselves together to have a new technical manager for the next qualifying game they to have to play. Nigeria literally drew all their first leg encounter, I don't know how sure their going to win the remaining games they have without a draw or lose.

Left alone with me and with the results on ground, I doubt if they are going to scale through this qualifiers stage being almost at the bottom of the group with just 3 points, I know that this is football anything can happen, but for the Nigerian case, it will likely take a miracle.

I agree with you. I don't expect much from this team in the next few years either. There is no doubt that Brazil have a very strong squad. Brazil also has some young talent. However, the overall performance of this team is very poor.

I personally think that one of the reasons for Brazil's poor position is the lack of experienced coaches. Brazilian management usually relies on local coaches all the time. But now they should hire an experienced coach. Bonding between players is very weak. If the bonding between the players is not strong then this team cannot expect good performance.

I have got a questions for those who are better informed and more in touch with football/soccer than I am (Since I only pay attention to it when there is an specific league or cup which catches my attention).
Do you believe there are any chances to see Venezuela as a participant in this incoming World Cup taking place in two years from now? Or in spite of their latest performance it would take them actually more for them to get a chance to get the most important cup on the planet?.

What you do you think?
I have hopes my team could unexpectedly become a surprise in the coming World Cup, but I am trying to keep my head cold and not to create fake expectations by myself.

Only being able to quality would be a success on itself, keeping in mind how terrible our history in performance had been previously.

venezuela has done very well in recent years, especially in the qualifying games for the world cup, see that they currently occupy position number 4 in the table, with 6 games, 3 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat, this is a good campaign they are running, in the last 10 games Venezuela had only 3 defeats, this shows how the Venezuelan national team has performed well and looking at the number of places they qualify for, I think Venezuela has a great chance of qualifying, they just need to continue with this good performance and pray for the other teams to continue with their bad performance, I'm talking about teams like Chile, Paraguay and Peru

Brazilian team is in his worst for ever, not only said by normal people or football commentators or press also ex and mighty footballers from Brazil like Ronaldinho or Ronaldo said, they see a very weak and lost national team, without any new leader emerging after the departure or the fault of others.

We are gonna see two very long years until the world cup in some teams. Time to rebuild.... fast.

Currently, many countries have started involving in soccer because they noticed that it is a popular sport that bring people from all over the world together and it is loved by all. Because of this reason, many countries have improved in football and that is why the competition is now tough for Brazil to maintain that football history which they had in the beginning. Brazil is also a poor country and they will find it difficult to have the have the best football technology that other big countries have.

Football has grown significantly and you can also see how middle eastern countries are trying to invest in football. Apart from being the most popular game in the world, football has also become an important thing in tourism because every fan will usually follow wherever their favorite team plays. Football has become sport, entertainment and business at the same time. On the other hand, I agree with what you say, Brazil is experiencing a very extraordinary decline. This could be because modern football in Europe has developed significantly after the advent of social media. Or because Brazil doesn't have the development to adapt to modern football.

At the moment, The Brazilian team isn't as strong as to compared to what they used to be before, to me with the kind of squad they got now, I'm not seeing them in the picture as a team that would lift the world cup trophy, and coming to world cup competition in this recent years, we have teams that are way far better than Brazil, however we two years before the world cup year and which is quite enough time for things to improve with the current team before the world cup event.

Actually, I have same understanding with you because even though the Brazilian National team is not in good shape now, two years can be enough time for the team to make a difference so they should not be examined or analyzed by their current performance because football is a game that is very unpredictable and surprising things can happen within a blink of an eye so there's still hope for the Brazilian team as against the upcoming world cup in 2026. But being more realistic, the underperformance of the Brazilian team is becoming too much and if it gets more worse than this then I doubt if they can make a headway in the upcoming FIFA world cup in the next 2 years
Currently, the Brazilian national team isn't the best in he world at the moment and that's because of the recent results and performances but when you talk about national teams with players that are talented and have the potentials of becoming the bests in the nearest future, I strong believe that the Brazil national team should make it in the top three in the world. Like I've always said, I think there biggest problem right now is getting a manager that can be able to maximize the quality and depth of the squad and that I don't know how long it'll take the football federation of Brazil to get it right. I'm a fan of the Brazilian style of football because I feel it's the best type of football as it's always entertaining to watch. The 2026 FIFA World Cup is two years away from now and if the body that's in charge of the national team of Brazil makes the right move by getting a good manager, I think they'll stand a good chance of becoming the World champions in that tournament.
