What are you Ghana do…

…when they come for you?

Brazil advances to the round of 16 and faces Ghana next tuesday. Parreira says he hasn’t decided the team formation yet. Maybe he just wants it to remain secret so Ghana won’t be able to plan in advance, or maybe he was awestruck with the performance by most of the second squad yesterday and now has to reflect on the changes he’ll do. More on that on the near future.

In the meantime, Ghana is very much ready for Brazil and they aren’t afraid to win - Parreira admits they’ll be a tough opponent. Oddly enough, Ghana was the first team Parreira ever coached: in 1968, straight after getting his degree, Parreira went to Ghana to work as a coach for their national team. He was 25 at the time.
