Brazil came into this World Cup in Qatar as big favourites, but tonight they are packing their bags after being eliminated by Croatia on penalties.
After the match, Brazil coach Tite resigned, but before that he addressed the media at the press conference.
Journalists from Brazil were at the center of the events with the questions, and Tite did not remain indebted to them either, so he reacted violently. When asked why Brazil played poorly tonight, Tite put the blame on the media.
“We are poorly organized?” Well, you are the reason, you media. You always have some crazy analysis of your own. We have good players, we wanted to control the game. We wanted to stop the opposing players from going on the counter, but we didn’t quite succeed in that. They only had one shot on goal, just one.”
“I didn’t lose as you think, the whole team lost.” We wanted to dominate. Our strategy was to attack, to raise the tempo. “We had ten shots on goal, and they only had one, and they didn’t beat us,” said Tite.
Almost certainly, after this WC, Brazil enters the process of choosing a new coach.
