Brazil are one of the candidates to go far at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, as they have one of the best squads of the tournament. However, they have been suffering some setbacks, including Alex Telles’ injury.
After winning the first two games of the group stage, Brazil lost to Cameroon using an alternative team that included players such as Rodrygo, Antony and Gabriel Jesus, who would be starters in any other team.
However, against South Korea, Tite has chosen his more regular players, including Neymar Jr., who is back after recovering from an ankle injury. But, what happened with Gabriel Jesus? Here, check out the reason he isn’t playing today.
Why is Gabriel Jesus not in Brazil’s lineup against South Korea?
