Brazil advances in Qatar in steamroller mode and the country dances and enjoys the rhythm imposed by Neymar, Vinicius, Richarlison and company.

The journalist highlights the role of glue that soccer has in the country.
"Seeing the World Cup here is an excuse to celebrate and to escape from daily miseries, which are many," Galarraga reflects in the video that accompanies this news item, a fragment of his speech on

Tite's team faces Croatia this Friday (4:00 p.m., World Goal) after having thrashed South Korea in the round of 16 and presenting their candidacy to lift the cup in the final on December 18.
