World Cup 2022 LIVE Brazil vs Serbia commentary stream as Neymar leads push for goal
Brazil fans in high spirits ahead of Serbia WC game
Brazil face Serbia in their Group G World Cup opener at the Lusail Stadium in Qatar.
Tite’s five-time winners are the favourites to triumph in Qatar, with an enviable amount of talent in the final third, including Raphinha, Vinicius Jr, Richarlison, Gabriel Jesus, Antony and, of course, star man and talisman Neymar.
But Serbia have some dangerous players looking to cause an upset, with Lazio’s Sergej Milinković-Savić and Juventus’ Dusan Vlahovic looking to unsettle the likes of Thiago Silva and Marquinho. And four years ago in Russia, Brazil failed to win their opening game, with Switzerland fighting back to earn a point with a Steven Zuber goal cancelling out Philippe Coutinho’s opener.
After Switzerland’s win over Cameroon, Serbia will hope to seize back momentum and avoid defeat here with the Indomitable Lions up next. Follow all the action with our live blog below:

38 mins: Serbia enjoy a spell of possession for the first time in a while…
They’re working the ball patiently around the Brazil box, and eventually they win a throw-in out on their right.
It’s taken short, and they’ll hang onto the ball a while longer.
Eventually some Brazil pressure sees Serbia go long, and possession is switched.

A silky piece of link-up play between Paqueta and Raphinha sees the latter get some space in the Serbia box!
He tries to place a shot past the goalkeeper, but passes it straight at him.
Raphinha should do better there.

32 mins: From some way out, Casemiro picks out Raphinha in the Serbia box with a deft, lofted pass!
Raphinha heads the ball into the middle of the penalty area, but Serbia get it away for a Brazil corner.
