Instead of posting a list like many other teams, Brazil held a press conference in Rio de Janeiro for coach Tite to read the names of each player participating in the 2022 World Cup – the tournament starting on November 20.

Many Brazilian players watched the live broadcast of the press conference on the morning of November 7 local time, then shared on social networks the moment they knew they would be going to Qatar.

Brazilian players are nervous as they wait for the announcement of the World Cup roster

Brazilian players anxiously waited for coach Tite to summon them to Qatar.

Antony wore a Brazilian shirt, sitting in front of the TV with his family members – those wearing his Man Utd shirt.

Antony moved to Man Utd last summer, and quickly created a positive effect.

Bruno Guimaraes reacted similarly.

Brazil’s number one star, Neymar, watched the press conference live with his two sons.

Alex Telles – a defender playing for Sevilla on loan from Man Utd – burst into tears, then hugged and kissed his wife sitting next to him when he learned of the summons.

Pedro also took advantage of the joy of being called to Qatar to propose to his girlfriend.

Pedro proposed to his girlfriend after receiving news that he could attend the 2022 World Cup.

Brazil’s 2022 World Cup roster lacks many stars, such as Roberto Firmino (Liverpool), Gabriel Magalhaes (Arsenal), Gabriel Barbosa (Flamengo) or Matheus Cunha (Atletico).

At the 2022 World Cup, Brazil is in Group G, playing Serbia on November 25, Switzerland on November 28 and Cameroon on December 3.

According to bookmaker Oddschecker, Brazil has the highest chance of winning the championship with odds of 11/2 (bet 2 to 11).
