Brazil continues to look for spaces in the opponent's defense. For now, Switzerland closes the block very well and makes its lines compact, waiting to counterattack.
35' Final stretch of the first half
The end of the first half is near. Brazil has been dominating the ball for a few minutes now, but is not translating it into goals. For now, the opposing defense is very closed.
30' Half hour of match
For now, we only have one clear goal option, in fact, the only approach to the penalty area. Otherwise, it has been a hard-fought game in the middle of the pitch.

Good save by Yann Sommer! Vinicius arrived in the box after Raphinha's cross from the right, but his shot wasn't quite firm enough for the Swiss keeper.

20' The match remains goalless
The match remains 0-0. Brazil tries to put pressure on the Swiss, who play their game based on possession.
18' Not much happening in the match
Complicated game to describe at the moment. It is played a lot in the middle of the field and is cut by fouls.
13' First minutes
The score remains tied with no goals scored. There are no scoring options either.
8' The game gets tangled
Switzerland start to take the ball and force Brazil to take preventive measures in defense. Possession of the ball has been very divided up to this point.
3' Brazil looks for the goal
As could not be otherwise, Brazil goes out in search of a quick score and rushes into the opponent's half. First moments of the match.

Coach: Titê
All set at 974 - Ras Abu Aboud Stadium
This is what the stands look like at the venue where the match will be played. The fans of both teams are enjoying a very friendly atmosphere in the run-up to the match.
Switzerland looking to keep up good run of form
The Swiss team has been performing very well. Apart from starting with a win against Cameroon in the group stage, they had won three matches in the UEFA Nations League against Portugal, Spain and Czech Republic. Having recently lost in a friendly match against Cameroon does not detract from its role as one of the teams that are candidates to qualify, despite having two rivals that on paper are more favored than them.
Brazil and a perfect performance
In recent matches, the Brazilian national team has had very good results. Apart from winning the first match of the day in the group, they had won two friendly matches in September against Ghana and Tunisia, two more in June against South Korea and Japan, and had closed the qualifiers with three consecutive victories against Bolivia, Chile and Paraguay.
More player reactions
Casemiro (Brazil): "Neymar is an exceptional player, one of the best in the world, but unfortunately he won't be in the next game. Even so, we have quality players. Compared to Neymar, of course it will be difficult to find a player of his level. But we have people of quality who can fill his position".
Djibril Sow (Switzerland): "The Brazil game will be totally different. I think we'll have space to counter-attack and we've already shown that this is one of our qualities.
Standings - Group G
1- Brazil / 3 pts (+2 GD)
2- Switzerland / 3 pts (+1 GD)
3- Cameroon / 0 pts (-1 GD)
4- Serbia / 0 pts (-2 GD)

Statements - Xherdan Shaqiri (Switzerland player)
"It was a very difficult match the previous one, but we got a good result, a draw. It was a positive result."
"We know what we can do and we have progressed since then. Now we are more experienced and when we play against the best we have the weapons to score. We are confident. We have shown in the past that we can win these games. This match is going to be very different from the Cameroon game."
"They have a lot of experience with Marquinhos and Silva, but they also have their weaknesses. We have to take advantage of our few chances. If we take the initiative, it will be a completely different game."
"We have many players from different backgrounds. In the end we all play for our country and we want to represent it in the best possible way. I enjoy every game I play for the national team. It's very nice and special that we, as a small country with so many cultures, can build such a strong team."
Statements - Marquinhos (Brazil player)
"It is a very special game because it can confirm our qualification, so we are going to give 100 percent or 200 percent."
"Although it is a game against a difficult team to beat, we have all the necessary ingredients to win. With the talent, with the group we have, with the players we have, we will manage to maintain the level."
"It is inevitable to miss Neymar and Danilo, but we have shown that before and we are ready and confident to show again that the group is strong, well trained and prepared for any inconvenience we may have in the World Cup."
"Today I see Neymar much better. It is very important to be mentally well, the head has a lot of influence in a recovery."
Key player - Switzerland
In Brazil, the presence of Richarlison stands out. The 25-year-old attacker, who currently plays for Tottenham in the Premier League, comes from scoring the goals of the Brazilian victory in the first match of this World Cup and will want to demonstrate his potential. Adding up all the categories in which he has played with the Canarinha, he has 26 goals in 53 games.
Key player - Brazil
In Switzerland, the presence of Breel Embolo stands out. The 25-year-old attacker, who currently plays for AS Monaco, is one of the players who repeats presence in the World Cup after Russia 2018 and seeks to prove his importance. In total he has 12 goals in 60 games with the national team.

Brazil vs Switzerland history
These two teams have met nine times. The statistics favor the Brazilians, who have been victorious on three occasions, while the Swiss have won twice, for a balance of two draws, which curiously have been recorded in the two duels that have taken place so far in World Cups.
Switzerland
Switzerland comes from winning its first match of this World Cup by the minimum difference against Cameroon. The team coached by Murat Yakin is not the main favorite to qualify considering the group, but due to its recent history in the competitions where it has been, it is an opponent to be very careful, especially considering that by winning this match it could not only surprise, but also qualify to the next round.
Brazil
Brazil is coming off a victory in its debut in this World Cup. The Canarinha beat Serbia 2-0, although they suffered two important absentees, Neymar and Danilo, who will miss the rest of the group stage. Despite this, the team coached by Tite knows the responsibility that comes with this match with these mitigating factors, as it must make clear its favoritism without its main figure in order not to lose credibility on the road to the title.
The match will be played at the 974 - Ras Abu Aboud Stadium
The Brazil vs Switzerland match will be played at the 974 - Ras Abu Aboud Stadium, located in the city of Doha, Qatar. This venue, inaugurated in 2021, has a capacity for 44,089 spectators.
