- Brazil lost 1-0 to Cameroon in their final group game of the 2022 World Cup.
- Vincent Aboubakar scored the winning goal with a header in the 92nd minute.
- Tite made nine substitutions, but denied that it was a sign of disrespect against the African side.
Adenor Leonardo Bacchi, the head coach of Brazil, said he accepted responsibility for his team’s shocking loss to Cameroon by the score of 1-0 in their final match in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup on Friday.
Tite made nine substitutions to the team that won over Switzerland on Monday, but he disputed that it was a sign of disrespect against the African side.
According to what Tite remarked, “we were particularly apprehensive about the threat posed by Cameroon.” They were the better team and deserved to win. They were highly effective in the vertical game.
We were ineffective, and as the match went on, it grew increasingly risky. Who was unsuccessful? Everyone here (in the Brazil camp). I am the one who is to blame for everything that takes place.” According to Xinhua’s reporting, Brazil controlled 65 percent of the possession and 21 shots on goal at the Lusail stadium, while Cameroon only had seven efforts.
However, the five-time world champions were unable to make the most of their opportunities and ultimately paid the price for their wastefulness when Vincent Aboubakar scored the game-winning goal with a header in the 92nd minute.
Tite made a commitment to his team that they would treat South Korea with the utmost respect when they faced them in the round of 16.
“Each and every match is challenging. “We can’t afford to take anyone who stands in our way lightly,” he warned. The World Cup is a competition in which there are no do-overs. After this result, we will allow ourselves to be disheartened for the next day and a half before beginning our preparations for the next game.
