#1 Brazil
Brazil was arguably the best team after the International break. Many people have underrated the Brazilians following the injury of their superstar, Neymar. But Tite's men have proved to the world that they are not just a one-man team as they boast a lot of impressive talent in their ranks.
In their first match, the Selecao defeated the 2018 World Cup hosts, Russia by 3 goals to one in a thrilling encounter, with Miranda, Philippe Coutinho, and Paulinho all on target. They faced a tougher test in their next game as they played a well known German team.
Before the match, the Selecao were highly underrated as fresh memories of what happened in their 2014 clash resurfaced. And boy, Brazil proved doubters wrong! They defeated the Germans at the Olympiastadion, with Gabriel Jesus scoring the only goal of the match.
