1·
1 year ago90 minutes and we had 2 shots on goal. One a scuffed header from a corner that went miles wide and the other a shot from a direct free kick. We couldn’t create a single chance to shoot from open play in 90 minutes.
And by the way, the last 2 games we also created nothing and only scored one goal from a corner in each game.
In 7 games since the world cup, we’ve lost 3, to Marroco, Senegal and Uruguay.
This is one of the most (maybe the most?) pathetic sequence of games I remember seeing from the national team.
The revolutionary, record breaking genius of Diniz at full display:
First coach to lose 2 games in a row in the national team history
First coach to lose 3 games in a row in the national team history
First defeat at home in wc qualifiers in the national team history
First defeat to Colombia in wc qualifiers in the national team history
First defeat to Uruguay in 22 years
2W, 1D, 3L in 6 games
5 goals conceded in the last 3 games (Brazil conceded 5 in all 17 games of the 2022 qualifiers)
only 3 goals scored in the last 5 games
Funnily enough this was the team’s best performance under him
