[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1098541, member: 74121"] 2016 seems a lifetime away for Brazil. Chile A 36 - 27 Brazil A (yesterday) I've read suggestions that despite being an u23 side, this is still a decent strength Chile side. But this is still pretty dire for Brazil in my opinion, even though it was played in Chile. I see coach Fernando Portugal was appointed in 2019. I think questionmarks must be raised about his ability with Brazil's record over the last 15 months or so. I struggle to believe that the quality of available players in Brazil has plummeted quite so much despite the creation of a professional side in the Cobras. Getting spanked by the likes of Zimbabwe, Kenya (both improved a bit) and Chile u23s is just horrible for a side that defeated the US 6 years ago. If they lose either of their forthcoming fixtures against Paraguay and Colombia, who both have a handful of pro players only, then I think it should be back to the drawing board for Brazil. [/QUOTE]
