The performance from Brazil last night especially after taking the lead was uncharacteristic to say the least.

Tite's men had their backs to the wall and have got only themselves to blame for inviting trouble without trying to shift gears and kick-on from their early goal advantage.

The Brazilians were unceremoniously knocked off their perch by the Swiss, who took full advantage of the situation by trying to play expansive football whenever they sensed an opening.

Undoubtedly it is back to the drawing board now for Tite and Selecao who will be hoping to chalk out a few alternatives to try and stake their claim as one of the tournament's major attractions.

The result only further implied the fact that the 'big guns' in world football will be put to the sword by the underdogs!
