Shock almost followed shock. With the champions turned over by Mexico in the match before, surely the Swiss wouldn’t deliver another form book busting performance?
Well, they very nearly did. Although after the first half hour, this looked like a thrashing was on the cards. Brazil were brilliant, summed up by the quality of Coutinho’s strike, outside the box, like he’s done many times before for Liverpool.
But as the lead failed to be extended, and as Behrami was allowed to foul Neymar to his boot’s content, the Swiss grew in confidence and it’s hard to argue that they didn’t deserve their equaliser.
The Armchair Predicted:
Brazil 2-0 Switzerland
6 right, 5 wrong.
