Although the strength of the two teams is large, but Paraguay is not afraid of Brazil in history, before the 12 meetings, Paraguay defeated Brazil 4 times, played 3 times, lost 5 games, but unfortunately this match did not continue a good historical result, there was no tenacity in the game.
Brazilian coach Tite has no intention of releasing water, sending Vinicius, Rafinha, Cunha to form a trident, Coutinho, Fabinho, Paqueta to form a three midfielder, Tres, Thiago Silva, Marquinhos, Alves to partner four defenders, goalkeeper Edson Morais, the starting 11 people are worth 429 million euros, quite luxurious; Paraguay's starting 11 people are only 58.5 million euros, which is not an order of magnitude with Brazil.

Brazil attacked from the beginning of the game, and in the opening four minutes, Rafinha pushed a goal from a small angle, but it was invalid because the handball was in the first goal.
In the 28th minute of the game, Marquinhos assisted Rafinha to complete a powerful shot to give Brazil a 1-0 lead; in the 62nd minute of the game, Coutinho showed excellent personal ability, he shot directly from 25 meters away from the goal, blasted out of the world wave, the ball hung straight into the dead corner, the goalkeeper whip was out of reach, Brazil led 2-0.
In the 85th minute of the game, Anthony, who came on as a substitute, also shined, completing a shot on the right side of the goal to give Brazil a 3-0 lead; in the 88th minute of the game, Guimarães, who had just moved to Newcastle United, contributed to the Brazilian team, he assisted Rodrigo to easily play the empty goal, and Brazil easily washed Paraguay 4-0.
