Brazilian players did not appear to run on the perfectly manicured grass of Stadium 974, but instead, glide over it.
Brazil held the ball so long in the first half trying to break down Switzerland in the second Group G game for each team, they only added one minute of added time.
“I think we defended well. It was hard to defend against them, they have a good team,” Switzerland midfielder Michel Aebischer said. “They are good players in one-against-one situations, but in the attack, we didn’t create a lot of chances. At the end of the day, we wanted a point but, unfortunately, we conceded the goal.
“Obviously, Neymar has a different skillset, he can dribble past a player and it’ll make you say, ‘what happened there?’ He has that skill,” Tite said. “Other players are getting to the level that he’s at, and I hope they get there. “We saw how Morocco play yesterday and I said in this tournament we must have the willpower to look for the win,” Aboubakar said. “I believe my teammates had an excellent first half, despite some minor errors.
