Why This Brazil Team Might Be the Most Dangerous at the World Cup

Scotland had more corners than Brazil. Scotland had 46 percent of the ball. Scotland's goalkeeper made five saves. And Scotland lost 3-0. That gap — between what every stat says and what the final score says — is the entire story of this night, and it leads directly to something this Brazil team is doing that nobody in this tournament has found an answer to yet. A 19-year-old ran a World Cup group stage match against a seasoned European nation and made it look like a tactical exercise. The disallowed goal at 22 minutes changed absolutely nothing. Neymar walked onto a pitch after 918 days and the game was already decided. And the expected goals — the real quality of the chances created — tell you the 3-0 flatters Scotland, not Brazil. In this video we break down every piece of it: the seventh-minute mistake that set the entire tone, the ten-minute window Scotland had and exactly how it was closed, and the single word that explains how a team can control a World Cup match without ever really controlling possession. Ruthless is not the same thing as dominant. This Brazil understands that distinction better than anyone. Does any team left in this tournament?
