World Cup 2018: 3 reasons why Mexico will knock Brazil out

#1 Hirving Lozano will exploit Brazil's Achilles' heel

Lozano has been the star for Mexico in this World Cup

Mexico's winner against Germany was scored by this young man called Lozano. As much as the build-up to the goal was wonderful, the finish by the 22-year-old was equally good.

The PSV forward is one of the most exciting youngsters on display in this World Cup and he certainly hasn't disappointed.

Lozano made sure that he took his chance against the big Germans and also assisted one of Mexico's two goals against South Korea in their second group game.

The Mexican will be a real threat for Brazil on the left flank and could be punished if not taken proper care of. Brazil has one of the strongest squads this World Cup, however, there is one position that is proving to be their Achilles heel. And it is the right back spot.

After the South Americans weren't able to pick veteran Dani Alves for the competition due to an injury, they had to settle for Danilo and Fagner.

Although the two are good right-backs, neither of them have been able to make the position theirs so far. And to make things worst the former of the two is struggling with injuries.

While the rest of the Brazil team looks solid, this one position is weak and unfortunately for them, Lozano will be looking forward to taking full advantage of this on Monday.
