I think that it is one of those things where you can, we always write narratives to fit results, right?
That's how it always happens.
And this was definitely a game where if Brazil do take those chances.
And they're really good chances, right?
It's a penalty to start off with.
Then when Hendrik goes through, really bad first touch, but he should score.
There's two times that they should score.
And if they score those goals and they go through, maybe we go, well, it was a bit cynical, but it was what they needed to do to get past a dangerous Norway team.
And you don't think about it anymore.
And actually, this feels like this is now the recurring narrative with Norway.
I saw it was James Benj of CBS was posting that in Brazil's last three World Cup eliminations, they've actually put up shots worth 8.48 XG.
They've allowed 2.02 now.
I'm sorry, XG is boring.
No one cares about it.
But I do think there's a point there, which is that actually,
Brazil have now got this absolutely entrenched narrative that what happens at World Cups for, what is it, the last four cycles?
Get through the groups and lose to the first European team you play.
That's basically been what they do over and over again.
And it is worth saying that in all of those games, it's not like they haven't made chances to do something different.
They have.
