After the Brazilian team’s clash this Wednesday (24) against Scotland, at 7pm, the team led by Carlo Ancelotti will know their opponent in the next phase of the competition.
The definition will depend on Brazil’s placement in Group C at the end of the World Cup group stage. In the current scenario, the Brazilian team leads the group with four points and depends only on itself to advance as group leader.
