The highlight of the Match: Brazil won both of their previous encounters with Serbia, including their most recent match at the last FIFA World Cup.

Brazil will be participating in its 22nd FIFA World Cup since 1930. This will be the only country to have taken part in all 22 editions of the World Cup. Brazil has not lost a World Cup group game in the last 15 years, with 12 wins and three draws. The national team’s most recent defeat dates back to 1998 when they lost against Norway in their group stage game.
Serbia has been in the running for almost every FIFA World Cup since 2006. They have qualified for four of the last five tournaments, only failing to qualify for the 2014 tournament. However, Serbia has also had a few setbacks during this stretch.
For example, they have lost 7 of their last nine matches in World Cups (the most by any European team), with Australia being the only country to lose more than eight games. Here are the Highlights Of the Portugal Vs. Ghana World Cup 2022 Match.

26′ Counter Attack
Serbia has a chance! Brazil loses possession, and Tadic pounces, crossing it in for Mitrovic. Alisson jumps over and catches the ball before it can reach the Serbian striker’s head.
28′ Big Chance
This would have been one of the best chances Brazil could have had, but Serbia came up with a big save. Silva sent in a great through ball, but Milinkovic-Savic got low and swiped the ball away from Vinicius’s feet. What a fantastic save!
33′ Neymar Attack
As Neymar tries to keep possession of the ball, Lukic skids in from behind to take him down.

Brazil has a chance to score. Raphinha gets the ball in the box after he completes a one-two with Paqueta, but his shot is off, and it’s an easy save.
39′ Stats

41′ Big Chance
With the keeper out of position, a big chance for Brazil. Luka Milenkovic reaches a ball over the top and kicks it against his chest, giving Vinicius a breakaway on goal. Milenkovic recovers quickly with an acrobatic tackle.
54′ Good Attack
Brazil continues to press, with a fantastic last-ditch tackle from Pavlovic. He timed it perfectly, as it could have easily been given as a penalty.

Wow. Sandro ripped a powerful shot from almost 30 yards out, but it just wasn’t enough and cracked off the crossbar.

Finally, the first goal of the game goes to Brazil. Richarlison makes it happen for the Brazilians with a 1st-minute opener. Neymar maneuvers through a slew of Serbian defenders within the box before finding his teammate Vinicius, who drills a ferocious shot into the back of the net after the keeper saves his initial attempt. Later, Spurs striker Harry Kane nets an easy tap-in off a rebound from Vinicius’ initial shot.
73′ GOAL
Brazil 2, Serbia Zero. Richarlison Gets His Second Goal Of The Game. It all started with a cross into the box to give him the ball in a great position. His one touch with his right foot brings the ball up before he strikes a sensational bicycle kick volley into the back of the net! What a goal.
