While Suarez has 9 goals (equal to Messi at Barca), Cavani is not far behind with 8 goals for PSG since the beginning of the season. This duo promises to cause many difficulties for the Brazilian defense.

Not to mention, Selecao will not be able to have the services of many key players, typically Marcelo, Thiago Silva, Philippe Coutinho, Casemiro, Lucas Moura for various reasons.

However, coach Tite still has stars like Neymar, Willian, Gabriel Jesus... these are all players who have the ability to decide the fate of the match. Moreover, in the last 3 confrontations, Brazil has been undefeated against Uruguay with 2 wins and 1 draw.

With Uruguay, although they have not been in good form recently, but against a fateful opponent, coach Oscar Tabarez's students will certainly take the field with the highest determination to win, bringing smiles back to the fans.

Croatia's hero in the match was defender Tin Jedvaj as his first two goals for the national team gave the hosts victory.

Sergi Roberto lost the ball to Ivan Perisic and he immediately passed the ball to Andrej Kramaric who broke through and beat goalkeeper David De Gea in the 54th minute. However, just 2 minutes later, Daniel Ceballos scored his first goal in the national team shirt, helping Spain level the score.

In the 69th minute, from a very accurate pass from Luka Modric, Jedvaj headed the ball to increase the score to 2-1 for Croatia. However, with just over 10 minutes left in the match, Sime Vrsaljko handled the ball in the penalty area and Sergio Ramos did not miss the opportunity to score from the penalty spot for Spain.

It was thought that the match would end in a draw, but in the extra minutes, goalkeeper De Gea could not catch Josip Brekalo's shot and Jedvai was there at the right time and place to successfully finish, bringing victory to Croatia.

With this victory, the top spot in the group and the ticket to the semi-finals will be decided when Croatia and England face off on November 18.

In this match, coach Joachim Loew decided to start Leroy Sane - the player he had removed from the 2018 World Cup squad. The midfielder currently playing for Man City scored the opening goal for Germany in the 8th minute. In the 25th minute, the home team scored the second goal thanks to Niklas Suele.

Under great pressure from Germany, Russia focused mainly on defense, so the visitors could not organize many dangerous attacks. That is why Stanislav Cherchesov's team received the third goal in the 40th minute. This time, the player who scored for the 2014 World Cup champion was Serge Gnabry.

England "crush" US team on Rooney's tribute day

England won 3-0 against the US in a testimonial match for striker Rooney that took place early this morning, November 16.

In the 25th minute, Jesse Lingard - the player currently playing for MU, controlled the ball neatly and then curled it dangerously to open the score for the England team. Then, the US team had to pick the ball out of the net for the second time in the 27th minute. The goal originated from a central attack, the English football "prodigy" Jadon Sancho made a very well-timed pass from the right wing, allowing Trent Alexander-Arnold to finish decisively to increase the score to 2-0.

The striker born in 1985 was given 7.1 points by Whoscored, the highest among the players who entered the field in the second half.

Although Rooney did not score in his testimonial match, his teammates did a great job. In the 77th minute, Callum Wilson finished accurately from Fabian Delph's pass to score the third goal for the home team.

MU leaders will prevent coach Jose Mourinho from making any transfer deals in January 2019, after reality showed that the Portuguese strategist failed in his shopping.

MU 'cấm' Mourinho mua sắm, Barca tống khứ Dembele

Mourinho's relationship with Vice President - CEO Ed Woodward is unlikely to improve, if MU really prevents the captain from shopping in January 2019.

Independent said that MU's big bosses are currently very cautious about pouring money for Mourinho to strengthen his squad in the upcoming winter transfer period. And there will be no new additions for the Red Devils, if Mourinho proves that MU is worth spending money to bring in a certain target.

The deeper reason is that MU leaders do not trust Mourinho's "shopping" because he himself has now lost faith in the 3 contracts he personally brought in, including Fred, Victor Lindelof and Eric Bailly.
