I also noticed in the second half that every time we tried to build up, Brasil had 2 and 3 men on our guys, but whenever Brasil counter attacked on us, we gave them the entire flank and often didn't directly pressure until the 18. Our goals were based off of sharp, quick attacks that were very direct. The whole second half, we played around with the ball, passing in the middle, passing back, etc. and it let the Brasilian team get back and apply good, hard pressure.



Exactly!!! Far more succinct than me.....
