Overview
- Brazil, which lost 2-1 to France on Thursday in Boston, conceded to Kylian Mbappé and Hugo Ekitike as Bremer pulled one back for the Seleção.
- Vinicius Junior said Brazil is not the favorite based on recent results, adding that the team’s focus is doing everything to put the country back on top.
- Teen forward Endrick pushed the opposite view, saying Brazil should be seen as a favorite and that the real surprise would be failing to reach the late rounds.
- The team remains in the United States for another tune-up, with an upcoming friendly in Orlando against Croatia as preparations continue.
- Brazil carries five World Cup titles but none since 2002, and Carlo Ancelotti now leads the side after an uneven qualifying run that raised calls to lower the hype.
