Mystery of the WCF
Many football experts say that Brazil and Germany are the co-favourites in the 21st edition of the World Cup Football, the greatest show on earth. Contrarily others comment there are no clear favourites, rather the mystery of the competition is that the fixture has been prepared in such a way as the two co-favourites may meet one another in the very second round if one of them become group champions and the other finish as group runners-up in the group stage. However, they are destined to meet in the final if both of them become either group champions or group runners-up.
Brazil are in Group E with Costa Rica, Serbia and Switzerland, while Germany are in Group F with Mexico, South Korea and Sweden. Thirty-two countries and regions have been divided into eight groups of four, each team playing the other three once on the round robin league basis, top two sailing into the knockout stage. A former international footballer said that Brazil are now a complete team. Coach Tite has taught the players conviction to win without depending on a single player and that is why they beat Germany on the German soil a month ago.
