Recap: Brazil vs Tunisia 1:4 (Round of 1) (Sport<>)
The Israel national under-20 team will meet the great Brazil national team this Saturday (20:30) in the quarterfinals of the World Cup. Ofir Haim's magical group hopes to provide a real sensation against one of the favorites to win, and this time, unlike the previous rivals, a shiny, talented group awaits it, with stars mentioned as candidates for the biggest teams in Europe. Here is an acquaintance with some of them.
Andrei Santos
Vasco da Gama's diamond has already been bought by Chelsea for €20 million and is considered the biggest name in the tournament. The 19-year-old midfielder excelled in winning the Copa America for young teams with six goals and also has one appearance for senior Brazil, coming on as a substitute in the 2-1 loss to Morocco.

Marcus Leonardo
The Santos striker has scored 31 goals for the first team, has been compared to Neymar and has four goals in the current tournament. This ability has caused a host of teams across Europe to turn a blind eye, including Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal, Newcastle and West Ham.
Marquinhos
The Sao Paulo winger was bought by Arsenal for €7 million last summer, and spent last season on loan at Norwich, providing six goals and four assists in the Championship. Even before the loan deal, he managed to make his debut for the Gunners, providing a goal and an assist in the Europa League against Zurich.
Matheus Martins
The winger was bought by Udinese for €6 million last January and was immediately loaned out to Watford. He scored two goals in this tournament, both in extra time - once against Tunisia, and once against the Dominican Republic.
Savio
French club Troyes paid Atletico Mineiro €6.5 million for him in the summer of 2022 and immediately loaned him to PSV. He made six appearances for the Dutch club, along with several other games for the club's youth team.
Matheus Nascimento
The 19-year-old attacker scored eight goals for Botafogo's first team and was given the ultimate honour last summer, when it was reported that Real Madrid were eyeing him and trying to bring him in. Chelsea are also showing interest.
Giovanni
The Palmeiras striker has scored just one goal so far in the tournament, against the Dominican Republic, but the sparks he showed in Brazil prompted Newcastle and Nottingham Forest to try to bring him in last season.
