Brazil’s quest to claim a sixth World Cup crown begins in New York New Jersey Stadium, East Rutherford on Saturday, as it takes on African champions Morocco in Group C.
The Brazilians have turned to foreign influence for the first time, with venerated Italian Carlo Ancelotti leading them out this summer. A troubled qualifying campaign means expectations have been tempered back home, but now that we’re into the swing of things, Brazilians are once again hopeful of their country standing proudly at the summit of the soccer world once more.
The nation’s opening game will be far from plain sailing, with Morocco history-makers and semifinalists last time out in Qatar. They’ve grown stronger since then, claiming Africa Cup of Nations glory, albeit in quite bizarre circumstances, earlier this year.
The man partly responsible for Morocco’s meteoric rise, manager Walid Regragui, is no longer at the helm, quitting his post three months ahead of the World Cup. Morocco is now led by Mohamed Ouahbi, but there have been few signs of any significant change.
