Defeated in the first round of the World Cup by Brazil, Serbia, considered favorites to get the second place in Group G, tries to recover this Monday (28) in the World Cup in Qatar.
There is an expectation that coach Dragan Stojkovic will choose from the start the scoring duo of Mitrovic and Vlahovic – the second, who defends Juventus (Italy), only entered the field against the Brazilian team in the second half, with the Serbs already behind in the scoreboard.
The opponent will be the Cameroonian team, which also debuted with a defeat at the World Cup, against Switzerland. The match will take place at the Al Janoub stadium, in Al Wakrah, at 7 am (BrasÃlia time).
Winning is the objective of the opponents, but the two teams, if there is a tie that will give each one the first point in the Cup, will maintain a chance of qualifying in the final round of the group stage.
The biggest problem will be for the African team, as the duel will be against the five-time world champion, Brazil, who, if they don’t win against Switzerland, will go with maximum strength to the match.
The Cameroonian team, in addition to fighting against Serbia, will fight against an unpleasant retrospect: it lost all three games it played in its last two World Cups, in South Africa-2010 and in Brazil-2014.
Coach Rigobert Song, a former World Cup player (1994, 1998, 2002 and 2010) like Stojkovic (1990 and 1998), has the option of strengthening the attack with Aboubakar, the biggest name in the selection, who only played against Switzerland in the final third of the game.
