Tite wants full concentration from Brazil players at FIFA World Cup
Brazil manager Tite sent a strong message to his players ahead of the FIFA World Cup. He made it clear that he wants no distractions during the tournament and said:
"Even if the world was falling apart they would be focused on the game. And my focus is on the game, not on the fans or anything else. It's about concentration. Thiago and Dani have it – they're like animals. And their insights and instincts are fantastic. They are great leaders and set a great example by behaving the way they do. Whether we win or not, I want to be at peace. At peace with myself. That's my big desire. There are things that I can't control. I want to do my best work and be at peace. I'm sure I can do this."
Brazil are in Group G, where they are joined by Serbia, Cameroon and Switzerland.
