Brazil lost their third group game to Cameroon 1-0, but this loss was not significant as they secured first place in the group.
However, in this meeting, the Brazilians have lost two very important footballers due to injuries.
Brazil are facing an injury crisis after Gabriel Jesus and Alex Telles both picked up injuries in their loss against Cameroon in the third leg in Qatar.
Both footballers complained about knee problems and after new scans it has been confirmed that neither Gabriel Jesus nor Alex Telles can play this World Cup.
Gabriel Jesus’ injury is believed to be less serious, although he is expected to be out for around a month where Arsenal will also miss a few games.
However, it has been confirmed that the two players will no longer be able to play in Qatar.
In Brazil, they are suffering from injuries, as players like Danilo, Alex Sandro and Neymar were missing against Switzerland and Cameroon.
In the 1/8 final, Brazil will face South Korea and the return of Neymar with Alex Sandro and Danilo is still in doubt.
