The Selecao's recent performance was anything but stellar, resulting in a disheartening penalty shootout defeat to Marcelo Bielsa's well-prepared team. Here’s a closer look at the players who underperformed during the match:
Eder Militao
While Eder Militao won all of his ground duels and tracked effectively throughout the game, his passing was often below par, significantly affecting the team's play.
Additionally, he missed his penalty, which further compounded the team's woes.
Marquinhos
Marquinhos had a tough time containing the energetic Nunez, struggling to make a huge impact.
The PSG centre-back's performance only slightly improved after the Liverpool striker was substituted, but by then, the damage was done.
Endrick
Given a rare start, Endrick faced a rough time on the field, getting clattered each time he touched the ball.
Despite his efforts, he only managed to create a few half-chances, which did little to change the course of the game.
Raphinha
Raphinha had a promising start with a couple of good opportunities in the first half.
However, his influence on the game diminished as time went on, contributing to the team's lackluster overall performance.
