And I think that was also something really predictable in the fact that Brazil were going to press like that.
They were going to look for those opportunities regularly.
It felt very Carlo Ancelotti Real Madrid, didn't it?
That you weren't entirely always sure, even if Brazil were playing that well, but they certainly looked threatening with Vinicius up front.
Having said that, it did also feel like in this game that there was an element of...
almost defiant willingness to try to play out from the back, especially at the beginning by Scotland.
And there were a few times where I was looking at it and thinking, why isn't McTominay just playing that down the line?
Why are they not just trying to play a bit more direct and get the ball out of there in the first place?
And perhaps there's a mindset thing that does go to Steve Clarke, which is actually maybe there needed to be a bit more recognition that this is Brazil and you can't get away with that.
I think that's the thing.
I'm not sure, Max, is the honest answer, that they're a threat because they've got some very, very good players.
And it certainly looks like Vinicius is in the mood at this tournament.
I thought it was kind of interesting that he was on the pitch at the end.
It felt a lot like he really wanted that hat trick and he was really going for that at the end of that game.
And you think to yourself...
Do you need to still be out there?
Should you be?
Not that it feels very ridiculous to be picking it in for trying too hard, but players can get hurt, as we were just saying.
It was really hot out there.
And, you know, I think that there certainly could have been a case for saying on 70 Minutes, well, we're going to win this group.
