Brazil is in their familiar rhythm on the eve of the World Cup. Before departing for America, Brazil defeated Panama 6-2 in a friendly match played today at the Maracan\u00e3. The national team’s performance has doubled the expectations of the fans. Six different players found the back of the net\u2014Vinicius Junior, Casemiro, Breno, Lucas Paquet\u00e1, Igor Thiago, and Danilo.
However, despite this massive win, coach Ancelotti is not entirely satisfied. Brazil lacked rhythm in the first half. It was only after substituting 10 players all at once in the second half that the color of the match changed. Four of the six goals came during this period. Brazil took an early lead in the second minute of the match with a goal from Vinicius. In the 14th minute, Panama equalized, adding excitement to the game. Right at the stroke of halftime, Brazil took the lead again through a goal from Casemiro. In the second half, Ancelotti gave an opportunity to everyone on the reserve bench, which completely altered the style of play. Taking absolute control of the match, Brazil scored four more goals. Panama managed to pull one goal back during this period. The team will leave for America tomorrow morning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
