The Brazilian team left Russia with a heavy baggage of pressure and charges to pay for the next four years until the Qatar World Cup in 2022. The failure to seek the title in 2018 postpones at least another edition of the tournament the goal of the hexa and brings to competition in the Arab country the heavy responsibility to end a fast of achievements that will reach 20 years – two decades or four editions of the World Cup
After the title in 2002, in South Korea and Japan, Brazil suffered three declines in the quarter-finals: 2006 for France, 2010 for the Netherlands and now in 2018, against Belgium. The best result of this period, ironically, was the World Cup marked by the biggest failure in its history. That was in 2014, in the historic defeat of the tournament in the semifinal 7-1 against Germany, that the team managed to go further until the semifinal – lost in third place in the Netherlands.
At age four, Brazil is preparing for its debut in the first World Cup in the Middle East, the team will have on its shoulders an even heavier burden. The selection will be 20 years without winning the Cup, the second fastest in its history. A major hiatus was recorded between the triple Mexican championship in 1970 and the Tetra in 1994, with a 24-year break.
The four years of waiting until 2022 prompted the CBF to find solutions to make 20 years of fasting not become 24, 28 or even longer. The entity has evaluated after 7 to 1 some attributes to improve. The main one is the principle of the coach's permanence, something rare in the history of the selection after the Cup. Zagallo was the last coach in the history of the national team to have continued from one competition to the next. It was from 1970 to 1974. Telê Santana also played two consecutive World Cups (1982 and 1986), but in the interval between one and the other he came to leave the post to take it back.
The other coaches have spent the position because, at most, four years, without the right to continue work after participating in a Cup. Some were kicked out of the office after failures. The trend is for CBF to break with this style and revive the cycle of the next World Cup by re-evaluating the technical committee, with opportunities for renewal.
He also does not think of entrusting the post to those who have no experience, as was the case after the resignation of Carlos Alberto Parreira in 2006. He did not won the Germany Cup and gave in to Dunga, who had never coached.
Before the Russian Cup, Tite commented that although he had been in the position for more than two years, he would have a better prepared team. "One thing I would have liked to have a four-year cycle would be the time to do some basic work, to do all the tests I would need, but it was not possible," he commented
FRIENDLY
Fasting 20 years without winning the Cup, CBF has in view changes in the format of the preparation. The four long years until Qatar forced, for example, to rethink friendly matches. The absence of clashes with teams from other continents, such as Europe, has hurt Brazil in Russia. But it will not be easy.
The difficulty will be to reorganize the dates. The main European teams start in the second half the dispute of the new League of Nations and, thus, it will be difficult for Brazil to schedule confrontations with rivals of weight to give experience to a team that will undergo a reformulation. Veterans like Thiago Silva, Miranda, Paulinho and Daniel Alves himself, aside from the Cup due to an injury, should leave the team.
For their vacancies, it will be necessary to extend the monitoring of athletes.
The CBF has recently updated the basic competition schedule to reveal more players and hopes that in the future, we can better prepare young athletes, without clubs losing boys to teams from the outside, the case of Rodrygo, Santos, and Vinícius Júnior, Flamengo. Some of those robbers who come to the horizon in 2022 have not seen Brazil win a World Cup.
