Brazil to be sent packing?published at 20:59 BST<\/p>\n

Brazil v Norway (21:00 BST)<\/p>\n

\"Brazil<\/p>\n

If Brazil win this World Cup it will be because of their manager, Carlo Ancelotti.<\/p>\n

He showed again in their win over Japan in the last 32 that he always finds a way – his Brazil team don’t have a defined style, but they are able to adapt and almost play on feel, depending on how the game is going.<\/p>\n

But we saw against Japan that they did not quite have the legs to compete in the middle of the park – Japan just ran past Casemiro to score their goal – and Norway will feel like they can hurt them too.<\/p>\n

I think everyone is looking forward to seeing Brazil’s Arsenal centre-half Gabriel renew his rivalry with Norway’s Manchester City striker Erling Haaland on an international stage, and I don’t see him keeping Haaland quiet.<\/p>\n

You’ve probably seen the stats that Norway are the only team Brazil have never beaten – they have drawn twice and lost twice in four meetings since 1998 – and also that Brazil have been beaten by the first European team they have played in a knockout round at every World Cup since 2002.<\/p>\n

This time? It is going to go the distance – and I just have a feeling that Norway goalkeeper Orjan Nyland will be their hero in the shootout to settle it.<\/p>\n

Sutton’s prediction: 2-2 after extra time. Norway to win on penalties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Brazil to be sent packing?published at 20:59 BST 20:59 BST Brazil v Norway (21:00 BST) Chris SuttonFormer England…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":675557,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":["post-675556","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/675556","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=675556"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/675556\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/675557"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=675556"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=675556"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=675556"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
