I think it’s amazing that Brazil are playing yet the most exciting player on the field for me is on the other team. Alexis Sanchez will be apart of most of Chile’s attacks. I predict him to score or create something for Chile. Brazil are missing a well known forward. One with a high reputation. This year they are quite possibly the most defensive Brazil side ever to play in a world cup. In the past they have had the likes of Ronaldo, Romario, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Pele… This year their best players are defensive though. Maybe if Kaka is fit he can perform like the world class player he is. I’m going for a score draw after 90minutes and Brazil to win in extra time. I also think a red card will come out during the match.
