The Brazilian national team once again disappointed their fans in the World Cup qualifying group, losing 0:1 to Paraguay away.

After the unexpected result, the visiting team's forward Vinicius compared international football to club football.

"Matches in Europe are completely different – the ball moves much faster from one side of the pitch to the other.

We need to understand how to adapt to the different style of national team football so that we can win our matches.

We know the situation we are in now, and we must claw our way out of it at all costs," Vinicius said.

In the CONMEBOL group, the Brazilians have only gathered 10 points from 8 matches and are currently in fifth place.
