adminTERESõPOLIS, Brazil. — Brazil striker Fred says his team-mates have a simple game-plan if things don’t go their way during the World Cup soccer finals: get the ball to Neymar.
The Brazilians got back to work at their plush Granja Comary training base in Terespolis on Sunday after a laboured 1-0 win over Serbia in Sao Paulo on Friday.
The match saw Brazil booed by pockets of fans, but the players trained with the enthusiastic backing of local fans on Sunday at their camp in the mountains above Rio de Janeiro.
The positive mood was reflected by Fred as he looked back at the host nation’s preparations with satisfaction.
“We have played two friendlies and had two wins. It’s been two very good weeks,” said the 30-year-old, recalling the 4-0 win against Panama in Goiania as well as the defeat of Serbia, earned thanks to his solitary goal.
“Mistakes were made but it was good they were made now so that we can correct and analyse them and find solutions in order to improve.” — AFP.
