Brazil getting the forms back

Brazil in their latest international friendly outclassed hosts Turkey by 4-0 and thereby won all the five friendly matches they had played after the World Cup mismatch. They scored 12 goals but did not concede a single goal under former World Cup captain Dunga in his second term as coach.
The players have departed from idleness and lethargy. They are now laborious, cooperative and goal hungry. I have watched Brazil’s three matches from beginning to end and got convinced that both mutual understanding and individual brilliance of the sixties have returned to Brazil. If they can retain the tempo, I am sure, we will witness sensational records in the world of football in the coming days.
