For three weeks, the 2018 World Cup is in Russia. Already many title favorites had to cancel their sails. This weekend are the quarterfinals. We deal in this article with the hammer quarter final! Brazil meets Belgium at 19:00 on Friday night. Both teams were considered to be contenders for the world title before the World Cup. The four-time world champion Brazil started a bit bumpy in the finals. After the draw against Switzerland followed but only victories. Recently, Neymar and Co. won convincingly against Mexico. Because of these achievements, the Seleção is also in the quarterfinals as a favorite on the court. Belgium has so far struck a victory in every game. Especially the offensive power around Hazard and Lukaku caused so far spectacle. Against Japan, the Europeans turned a 0-2 deficit. This proved the team of Roberto Martinez their potential and their ambitions for the title. For Brazil’s win over Belgium, a tip on the biggest ever highlight of the 2018 FIFA World Cup .
Brazil:
At the 2014 World Cup in their own country failed the Seleçao in the semifinals to Germany with 1: 7. This bitter moment in the history of the football-crazy country is not forgotten, but is currently being replaced thanks to the strong performance of Neymar and his teammates. After starting problems against Switzerland (1: 1) Brazil secured themselves thanks to two 2-0 victories against Costa Rica and Serbia but still the group victory in Group E. And also in the round of 16 won the Brazilians with – their favorite result – 2-0. As the Brazilians only had to concede a goal in the starting game, Steven Zuber is so far the only conqueror of goalkeeper Alisson. In order for the defense of Brazil against the offensively strong Belgians but can exist, it requires an increase in performance. After all, the red devils are the best offensive of the World Cup finals.
As usual, the Brazilians convince in this World Cup finals with their offensive. Philippe Coutinho and Neymar have scored two goals each. Especially PSG’s 222-million-striker has been below expectations. In addition to the footballing performance, he was in recent games, especially through his theatricality. Against the strong defense of the Belgians defiant striker Seleçao will show their effort. Nevertheless, the South Americans are favored by the betting operators.
Belgium:
The team of Roberto Martinez was already in the run-up to the 2018 World Cup as a co-favorite for the title. The group phase survived the Belgians sovereign. Even with the second guard the red devils won against England and secured themselves with nine points the first rank in the group G. Also in the first minutes in the second round showed the Belgians wonderful offensive football. However, after the halftime break, more than eleven million Belgians stopped breathing – Genki Haraguchi put Japan in the lead. Only four minutes later, Takashi Inui doubled with a long-range shot. Roberto Martinez was shocked in the face. The native Spaniard responded with a double change and put his hopes in Marouane Fellaini and Nacer Chadli.
Only a few hand turns later the change bore fruit and Belgium equalized. In injury time – when the Japanese wanted to reach the quarter-finals with a last corner yet – completed Nacer Chadli a great counterattack to 3-2 final score. Thanks to the substitutes drew Belgium in the knockout stages against Japan but still out of the noose and is still represented in the tournament. In the next round, however, such a defensive performance will not be successful. Nevertheless, may again be expected a triple chain. After injury, Vincent Kompany returned to the starting grid for the round of 16. But even against the Japanese, the Manchester City defender was partially overwhelmed and the lack of match practice was noticeable. Whether he will play again against Brazil, is questionable. Similar defenses of him will take advantage of the Brazilians. Belgium must urgently get the defense problem under control against Brazil. The offensive will also convince in a duel with the four-time world champion and at least one hit. Anyone who believes in a Belgian victory and wants to place bets in that direction at the 2018 FIFA World Cup quarter-final against Belgium will be offered betting odds above 3.00.
