World Cup, the final. I expected a total of 7.5 goals, so this looks like a trial run. Brazil may be in the final, but as a fan of Brazilian football, their performance in this tournament has disappointed me a bit. Apart from the match with underdog Oman, the team is not playing in a typically "Brazilian" style, but rather more pragmatically, with a lot of focus on their defense and little risk-taking or showboating, even with their shots on goal. Of course, the score is the most important factor, so it remains to be seen if Brazil will suddenly change their game for the most important match of the tournament. The Belarusians also do not play in an entertaining way, but effectively, patiently waiting for their moments, defending well, and even in the knockout stage with very few, almost like beach soccer, shots on goal, their good finishing lead them to the final. I believe that in this match too, the teams will first and foremost try not to concede, as the cost of mistakes is huge and if anything - not to lose their heads, as they have already shown that they can score even after conceding first.
