00:00This is the Brazil team, a strong looking front line with Vinicius Junior, Cunha, Martinelli, Rafinha
00:06But very inexperienced at the back, Wesley, Bremer, Pereira and Santos, Douglas Santos
00:12Between them have only 13 caps, in some ways, for Carlo Ancelotti, this is an experimental evening
00:21Here's the fourth official, Tim Ford, in the VAR room
00:27It may be an experimental looking Brazilian team, but that is a very strong starting 11 for France this evening
00:34Who comes into the game as favorites, higher in the FIFA rankings, currently third, Brazil fifth
00:41Carlo Ancelotti does have a very tough job on his, as if the last five games, they've only won two,
00:47they've lost two
00:48They drew against Tunisia, and there we go, Steve
00:52Kylian Mbappé leading the line tonight, good to see him, on two feet and playing football
00:57Yeah, surprised to see him start the game actually
01:00I've only had small cameo appearances for Real Madrid
01:06And there's Casemiro, ex-Real Madrid, now Manchester United as well
01:09Well this is the France team, spot the weakness in this
01:12They are missing a couple of key players, no Saliba, Jules Koundé, Bradley Bacola haven't made the squad
01:18But this is a very well balanced team, Kanati alongside Rippa Meccano in midfield
01:23Mane and the chosen goalkeeper tonight, and the big surprise, they left the naming of the team officially
01:29Until the very last minute, in fact beyond the last minute
01:32They were keeping us guessing, but Kylian Mbappé does start
01:35And as you're saying Steve, in recent weeks, the last four games, only 21 minutes against Manchester City
01:41Reminded of the evolution of, uh, Brazilian football
01:45This is an excellent start
01:48Gusto down the right-hand side, flipping it right across, looking for Ekitike, an important header
01:52From Wesley
01:57He's one of the youngsters coming into the team, the 22-year-old
02:00Plays his football at Roma
02:05And that's this lovely play, Nick Gusto, Dembele
02:10Ederson behind, a real rookie back four for Brazil
02:17Now without to Alisson, the Liverpool goalkeeper, Gabriel of Arsenal
02:23Alexandro was at late withdrawal as well
02:30Taken quickly on the blind side
02:32Oh, that's a wishfish little shot there
02:36Yeah, good run by Rafinha, nice pick-out
02:39Just doesn't settle enough, just doesn't get down
02:42But this is a nice ball by Casemiro
02:45Just a simple ball
02:49I mean, this last, what, 18 months, Rob
02:52Last year and this year, he's been outstanding, hasn't he?
02:55Gone to another level that we've never seen from Rafinha
03:02And the one thing that the two sets of players will be wanting to avoid tonight
03:05Is any injury going to the final straight of their domestic seasons
03:13Deschamps won't win any calls from the club managers tomorrow
03:19No, it's Wesley on Teo Hernandez
03:21Allowed to go wherever he wants to
03:24That's what winning the Ballon d'Or is for
03:26You can play wherever you want
03:27Exactly
03:30There's your TK
03:33Draws the foul this time
03:41Yeah, just a simple in and out
03:44And Wesley's done what Wesley does, he just fouls
03:47He has to be careful
03:49Thankfully it is a friendly
03:50He's made about three or four fouls already
03:57That will be a test for Edison these days playing his football in Turkey with Fenerbahce
04:02A slight spring-like breeze around this stadium
04:15Edison organizing his new-look defense
04:20Camicano is up from the back, it's aimed at the far post
04:25Could have done better, it was Rabiot who got there in the end
04:28It was a lovely swinger
04:31And then just curling out at the end
04:33And Rabiot just takes his eye off it really
04:36Goes with his arm almost
04:39Starting with Haiti against Scotland
04:41I hope the breweries are stacked that day
04:44Oh yes
04:49And there'll be a quarter-final here on the 9th of July
04:54These are two teams who you'll be expecting to make it to at least the semi-finals
05:03It's all beginning to settle for their surroundings
05:05Wesley looking for Rafinha
05:07Rafinha puts it back
05:09Coming to greet him, up to Meccano
05:13Canati
05:17There's a nice run by Rafinha
05:21Canati gets across
05:27Hernandez, slick football from France
05:31Rabiot
05:38Continue, I was going to say he's charged down the left
05:40But it's kind of a breeze down the left-hand side
05:42For the experienced French international
05:47Long ball over the top
05:49Looks like it's onside
05:51Rafinha
05:53Wrong pass from the Barcelona man
05:56Doesn't it, Rob?
06:08Benin just come into the extreme of its area
06:10Breaking his boredom
06:12He's largely been a spectator so far
06:16Now Canati
06:19Given away
06:20Now can they come alive here
06:23Brazil, the gap opens up
06:25Oh, so very, very close
06:29Yeah, but at least he took the shot on
06:31Yeah, Martinelli
06:33First time we've seen him tonight really
06:34But he was lurking with intensity
06:36Yeah, poor ball by Dembele
06:39Given to Vinny Jr
06:40He makes a good run to clear out the area, Vinny Jr
06:43And as he cuts inside up a Meccano
06:45He just can't bend it around Mignon into the goal
06:54When it comes to the World Cup Finals
06:56France will be facing Senegal in New Jersey
07:00Norway in Boston
07:02And waiting for their opponents in Philadelphia from the playoffs
07:07Great little step over
07:09Poor ball in, easily defended by Pereira
07:13Again, that's Mbappe, that side, down the right wing
07:26Well, a buzzer round the stadium
07:28As the supporters are studious at the moment
07:30Rather than excited
07:31Referee bought a little bit of time there
07:33And then decided there had been
07:34A foul on Rabiot
07:45Canate
07:48Gusto
07:49Looking to free Alise there
07:55Ball is played
07:57Into Mbappe territory
07:58Goalkeeper
07:59And a fanciful little flick
08:01It just comes so naturally
08:05I think he's passing the fitness test
08:10And he's just one off the France goal scoring record now
08:19Magnificent Mbappe
08:22Yeah, that's where he should be playing, shouldn't he?
08:24He should be playing as a number nine
08:25Just using his
08:27Sheer
08:29Pace
08:30Because once he gets to the other side of the defenders
08:34Nobody in world football is stopping him
08:36Look how quick he is
08:38He's just away
08:39And then it's just whether he can finish it
08:41And of course he can finish it
08:43Because all he does is score goals
08:44Wins by Chiwameni
08:45Then Dembele
08:46Into his path
08:47Just sprints away from Bremer
08:50Who's got no chance of catching him
08:52Just a stink little scooper early
08:55Over Edison
08:57Who's got absolutely no luck
08:58Lovely, lovely
08:59A cute finish
09:12Vinicius Junior
09:13We haven't seen a great deal of him yet
09:15He will want to take center stage against Mbappe
09:18Shooting the demand
09:19Well, it's always
09:20Going well wide from Cunha
09:23Yeah, you're more than happy for Cunha
09:25Aren't you
09:25To take a shot from 30 yards
09:29Hasn't much options for
09:31Vinicius Junior
09:32Martinelli made a run
09:33Rafinha
09:34Leaves the space for Cunha
09:35But it's way, way, way wide
09:38Never even threatening
09:40Puts pressure on everybody
09:41In that front line
09:42Because they're not the exciting
09:44Free-flowing Brazil of old, are they?
09:47They're a very pragmatic
09:48Get-behind-the-ball
09:49Counter-attack in Brazil
09:51And it's whether the fans can appreciate that or not
09:58This is a great move
09:59And another turn by Mbappe
10:00They need to really get a grip of it
10:02Because at the moment
10:04He has the freedom
10:05Of the Brazil penalty area
10:07Yeah, it was a nice quick play
10:09By France
10:13Dembele into Chiwomeni again
10:14Chiwomeni into Mbappe
10:16He just pulls his shot
10:17Eketike actually wants it
10:19To be pulled back to him
10:20We talk about free-flowing Brazil
10:22It's not
10:22Now it's free-flowing
10:25France
10:28Here is Wesley
10:31Cuts inside
10:33Vinicius Junior
10:33Gives him an angle
10:34Vinicius Junior
10:35And the rest of the Brazil team
10:36Felt there'd been a foul
10:37On the full-back there
10:39The referee doing his best
10:40To keep things flowing
10:41And a little test of distance from Casemiro
10:45Yeah, firstly it wasn't a foul on Wesley
10:48He went flying in
10:49Secondly
10:50It was a corner
10:51Casemiro takes the shot
10:52And the goalkeeper saves it
10:54So it is a corner
10:55But you can't even in a friendly
10:58You can't react like that
10:59To the referee
10:59And remonstrate in front of him
11:02But this shot
11:03The goalkeeper gets a hand to it
11:10Now Fina is looking to launch it
11:12Into a sea of stars
11:16Hands it to the far post
11:17A chance
11:18A free header
11:19That was a chance
11:20From Casemiro
11:20Good luck
11:21He was unmarked
11:27He's playing really well
11:28Actually
11:29He's playing really well
11:30For Madrid as well
11:31Too many
11:35There they go again
11:36France
11:39Haven't seen the best
11:39Of Dembele yet
11:40Cut it in towards Elisa
11:43Mbappi takes his time
11:44In his mind's eye
11:45That was going in the cop corner
11:48Yeah
11:48He doesn't move
11:49Wesley really
11:50Does he kill you
11:51And normally
11:51He moves the defender a bit
11:55They work it well
11:56Into Dembele
11:59Then into Elisa
12:01And on to Mbappi
12:01Aim
12:03It was difficult
12:04Mass alterations
12:06As the game goes on
12:07From Carlo Ancelotti
12:17France started the game
12:18As clear favorites
12:19Will be one of the favorites
12:20For the World Cup Finals
12:21As well
12:23Finalists in 22
12:24Winners in 2018
12:27No signs
12:28That Brazil have the players
12:30To end a 24-year run
12:32Without success
12:32At the World Cup Finals
12:35Oh no
12:36No no no
12:39We want to see something else
12:40Don't we from Brazil
12:41That makes us excited
12:43And at this moment
12:44In the qualification
12:45Games
12:46It hasn't happened
12:50A chance for Luis Emric
12:52To come on
12:53And to earn his spurs
12:54As well
12:56That was Wesley
12:57Down the side
12:58The right back
12:58Off forward
12:59I don't know
12:59What he was doing
13:01Was that a cross
13:02Was that a shot
13:02Because he doesn't
13:04Wrap his foot around it
13:05At all
13:05I think only he knows
13:11Yeah
13:12Haaland has scored more
13:13This season
13:14In the English elite
13:25Better from
13:27Brazil
13:27At least there being
13:28A little bit more
13:29Fourth ride in the second half
13:30Six to the feet
13:31Of Martinelli
13:32And then a
13:32Missed control
13:33At the final moment
13:34From Casemiro
13:35Yeah, I think so.
13:36Martinelli was trying
13:37To find Vinny Jr
13:38And Casemiro
13:40Comes bursting through
13:41It nearly falls
13:43Into his path
13:43Just
13:48There is Vinny Jr
13:51And again
13:52When you see him
13:52Play for Real Madrid
13:53You'd maybe expect him
13:54To take the defender
13:55On that
13:57Trying to be a little
13:58Unselfish
13:59Puts it back to
14:00Casemiro
14:01Across the face
14:02A goal
14:02Oh, the goalkeeper!
14:03Giving up the chase
14:04On that one
14:05And it was a fine
14:06Block of necessity
14:07From
14:08Canarte
14:09Yeah, but it's better
14:10From Brazil
14:12Again get the ball
14:13Forward
14:13Let the main men
14:15With all respect
14:15Play
14:17Vinny Jr
14:18Into Casemiro
14:19Into Cunha
14:20Into Martinelli
14:21And then a block
14:21By Canarte
14:22But it's better
14:23This team
14:26Don't play
14:28Flamboyant football
14:29But they have been
14:30Measured and organized
14:31And now it's a test
14:32Of the defence
14:33In the first
14:33Save the game
14:34From
14:35Mainnet
14:36Force to
14:36Vinicius Jr
14:37Draws the defenders
14:39Lays it back to
14:39Casemiro
14:40Tries to pass it in
14:41Well, a marked
14:43Improvement from Brazil
14:44Yeah, and that was
14:45A meeting
14:45Again I think it was
14:46Rob
14:47Cutting in
14:48Attacking again
14:49Teo Hernandez
14:50Great run by
14:51Wesley round the
14:52Outside
14:52Nice shot
14:53Simple enough
14:54For the goalkeeper
14:55But they've started
14:56Really well Brazil
15:05Louis Henrique
15:06Had a couple of good
15:07Seasons at
15:07Real Betis
15:08In La Liga
15:09After they invested
15:10A lot of money
15:10To sign him
15:11From
15:12Fluminense
15:13And he back
15:14To Brazil
15:15It's a bit of a
15:16Globetrotter
15:16Playing for
15:17His anything
15:18In St. Petersburg
15:19And an opportunity
15:21Tonight for him
15:22To impress
15:23Carlo Ancelotti
15:28Suspiciously
15:28Offside
15:29That looked like
15:30A lot
15:30That looked like
15:31A good tackle
15:33The referee
15:33Has a couple of
15:34Decisions to make
15:35Here
15:36Vinnie Jr
15:37Sweaters
15:38Almost literally
15:40That the challenge
15:40Was inside the
15:41Penalty
15:42We'll go to the
15:42VAR
15:52And Kuhner
15:53On to the
15:53Loose ball
15:54Maybe they
15:54Judged that he
15:55Come off
15:55A defender
15:55Yeah
15:56It's up
15:57And Mekano
15:57It was outside
15:58The penalty area
15:59Anyway
16:00Scruffy
16:02It is a goal
16:03It is denial
16:03Of a goal
16:04Scored
16:04An opportunity
16:04Of course
16:05It is
16:09So if you're
16:09VAR
16:10Are you going to
16:10Request that he is
16:11Dismissed
16:11It was a really
16:13Awful challenge
16:14From up
16:14Mekano
16:17It's not a yellow
16:19It's a red
16:23And France
16:24Will play
16:25A player
16:26Light
16:27For the remainder
16:28Of the game
16:33Most expensive
16:34Doorstop
16:35In the world
16:35Just a bit
16:38Pereira
16:39And Martinelli
16:40The players
16:40Over it
16:41Called in
16:42By the
16:42Brazilian
16:43Cooley
16:43Taken
16:44By
16:44Mansion
16:49They should
16:50Be able
16:50To score
16:50Goals
16:51At least
16:52That was a
16:54Deep pool
16:55Of
16:56Promising talent
16:57Yeah
16:58Promising
16:58Yeah
16:58That's the opposite
16:59Of words
17:00Isn't it
17:00And Joo
17:00Pedro
17:01Making his
17:01Seventh
17:01Appearance
17:02Tonight
17:02He's yet
17:02To score
17:03A goal
17:03For
17:03Brazil
17:04Has had
17:05An impressive
17:06First season
17:08With Chelsea
17:0818 goals
17:09For Chelsea
17:10Right
17:11France
17:11Break
17:12From the back
17:13At least
17:14They
17:14Draws
17:14Defenders
17:15But it
17:15Aim
17:15Got Eketike
17:16Who walks
17:16It in
17:17And France
17:17Come alive
17:24They breeze
17:25Into a
17:26Two goal
17:27Lead
17:28Yeah
17:29Ten men
17:29No problem
17:31This all
17:31Stems right
17:32From the
17:32Very back
17:33From the
17:34Goalkeeper
17:34Playing out
17:35To the
17:35Left back
17:36And they
17:36Make it
17:39And pass
17:40The ball
17:40Through the
17:40Pitch
17:41This is a
17:41Lovely goal
17:43Unfortunately
17:44We've only seen
17:44In the very
17:45Latter end
17:45Of it
17:46When the
17:464-4
17:47Would break
17:48But actually
17:48It stems
17:49Right back
17:50At least
17:51To Eketike
17:52Who just
17:52Dinks it
17:52Chips it
17:53Over
17:53Edison
17:54Again
17:54He could have
17:54Went to
17:55Mbappe
17:55Goes to
17:56Eketike
17:56Beautiful
17:57Finish
17:57Something
17:58Out of this
18:00Assortment
18:01Of Brazilian
18:01Players
18:02Make a team
18:03Out of them
18:09Delicious
18:10Junior
18:10To Douglas
18:12Santos
18:13A little bit
18:14One-dimensional
18:15From Brazil
18:16Give it to
18:16Vinny
18:16And hope
18:17For the
18:17Best
18:17Yeah
18:18It's hard
18:19For Vinny
18:19Because
18:19As I said
18:21Uncle Elisa
18:22Is putting in
18:22A shift
18:23And a half
18:23He does
18:24Try and
18:24Help
18:25Malagusto
18:25Out
18:25As much
18:26As he
18:26Can
18:30Referee
18:31Offering
18:31Some protection
18:32To Vinicius
18:32Junior
18:33And a
18:33Free kick
18:33And another
18:34Test
18:34Of the
18:34French
18:35Defense
18:37Too acute
18:38An angle
18:38To go
18:38Direct
18:39For goal
18:39Especially
18:39At this
18:40Level
18:40Of football
18:41Yeah
18:42He just
18:42Attacks
18:43Gusto
18:43This
18:43Tide
18:44Gets
18:44His
18:44Pass
18:44Away
18:45I mean
18:45It wasn't
18:46Really
18:46A lot
18:47Was it
18:47I mean
18:57He's desperate
18:57To keep
18:58A clean
18:58Sheely
18:59How's
18:59Thesis
