Is Liverpool the reason Brazil lost Copa America??
Just earlier this morning (Malaysian time) the final game of Copa America between Brazil and Argentina was played with Argentina crowned with their 15th Copa America.
Di Maria scored the first and last goal of the game in the 21st minute which locked in their victory for today.
Liverpool being the reason Brazil lost its final to Argentina is a theory by many football fans across the world. So how did Liverpool interfere an international tournament at South America??
As we all know three of brightest Liverpool players are part of the Brazilian team participating in Copa America. The three of them are of course Firmino in attack, Fabinho in midfield and Alisson on goalkeeping. Even though none of the three played all of the games during the tournament; two of them or at least one of them were targeted to start the finals against Argentina.
In reality, Tite chose to bench all three of them and to take a roller coaster ride.
Brazil started the game with the formation of (4-2-3-1) which then they switched to (4-2-2-2) after conceding a goal from Argentina. In the second half, Tite decided to go with (4-3-3) instead of the others from the first half. Brazil's stability in the game only worsened even though it was to re-stabilize their game.
Tite might be a lover of youth talents, as he started young players to assist Neymar, not considering any experienced choice for the finals.
He also chose to start Fred along Casemiro and left Fabinho to perform on the bench. There's only a few players in the world who has the capability to win a yellow in the first three minutes and get benched by a CF bcs of his amazing contribution.
He then started Brazil's second choice goalkeeper instead of their first choice who won the best goalkeeper award just in their previous Copa America.
What a genius Tite is for him to have chose the unbeatable team to play the finals resulting in an unexpected lost credits to Liverpool. In the end, it seems the addition of Liverpool players in the team could have possibly won them another Copa America.
I don't know what's the real reason behind Tite's team selection. But if it's ever because of being anti Liverpool, it always costs them the most. Maybe this is just my anger talking, but since seeing Liverpool players getting lack of minutes in international tournament, I thought I should bring it up.
Now it's upto Southgate, and unfortunately we know Hendo will not start but let's hope for the best and look forward to the upcoming season.

Maybe it's just me Steve, but the less our players have played over the summer, the better as far as I'm concerned. If anything I expect all our lads to be fresh and ready to go for the new season. I look at it as if they're keeping fit but not running a high risk of injury. It's good to have a rant isn't it? I think we should all do it regularly, it's good for the soul
I'm glad to have none of them injured but it's still not very nice to see them sitting on the bench missing out their chances of winning these tournaments. Yeah man, I tried ranting for the first time and it helps a lot. I can bring out what I had in me and it feels better after that. I think there's chances of me ranting more 😏
Sorry about all that but the quoted text is from lorenzo published on the echo the other details are written by me. I cant write something thats biased.
Okay, well if you ever do that again, just reference where you got it from and then all is okay 👌👍🏻

Same here man, as soon as I saw Ederson's name instead of Alisson's I knew I won't see the names of Fabinho and Firmino. Di Maria may have a scored a good goal, but I'd say if Ali was on goal, he would have saved the ball. I mean that's not how you go for that 1 on 1 and we've seen Alisson on situations like this multiple times. Whatever man, what has happened is on the past and let's hunt for trophies in the coming season. YNWA!

He must have been on cocaine. If that's not madness, what else is it??
just like Southgate. his choice of midfield, n the introduction of penalty takers appalling. thank God the Liverpool players came out uninjured.

The whole blame is on him. If he picked the right players for this game, they could have possibly won the game. All the places they had trouble, they wouldn't have had it if they played our three players. Idk if Brazil will change their manager after this or this will continue.
