Brazil
The FedEx Field in Landover, Maryland was chosen to welcome the always entertaining Brazil and a less famous Central American nation, El Salvador. Previously, these two nations have met twice before, a long time ago and Brazil won both matches 4:0. El Salvador are hoping they will perform well in front of the American crowd and give Brazil some headaches on the field. Brazil will try to forget what happened in Russia. Their form coming into the World Cup was excellent with their last defeat coming from Argentina back in the summer of 2017. However they were easily beaten by Belgium even though they tried to fight back in the second half. El Salvador doesn’t have a bad record; they have won the last two games and four out of the last 10, with three draws and three defeats. Brazil will surely test some new players in nothing less than a comfortable win for them.

They participated at the 1982 World Cup finals as well, but they have yet to advance the first round of the finals competition. El Salvador hosted the first CONCACAF Championship, but they failed to win the trophy, with the team suffering a loss to Costa Rica in the title game. Speaking of the Central American and Carribean Games, la Selecta won the trophy on two occasions (1954, 2002) and in 1968 they booked their place at the Olympic Games in Mexico.
