Tonight at 8:00 p.m. ET, Brazil and Chile go head-to-head in International Friendly competition live from the Rogers Center in Toronto. The game can be live streamed here.
Two of the world's best soccer clubs meet on the pitch when these two teams cross paths for a showdown tonight in Toronto. Both of these teams enter play as powerhouses and rank within the Top 12 of the FIFA world rankings while each side has notched 2014 World Cup berths. This matchup will give fans of the sport a sneak preview of what to expect in the summer of 2014 when the World Cup emanates from Brazil.
This should be an entertaining clash as both squads earned a shutout in their last time out. Though they both already qualified, both teams will be looking to gain some confidence at the other's expense tonight while they are also hoping to achieve some momentum going forward while looking ahead to the World Cup.
Brazil last lost a friendly match 1-0 to Switzerland back in August, and has rattled off five-straight victories in friendly competition since then. Chile, meanwhile, hasn't lost a friendly match since last March, and the last time it met Brazil, it was a highly spirited and competitive battle that ended in a 2-2 draw back on April 24.
Neymar was one of four different players to score in that game back in April and the 21-year-old has been a solid addition to the team since his debut back in 2010. He's the player to watch on Tuesday, having netted 27 goals through 45 appearances for the Brazil national team.
Brazil is coming off of a 5-0 win over Honduras on Nov. 16 while Chile enters play having topped England 2-0 back on Nov. 15. While Brazil is 5-0 in its last five friendly matches, Brazil has won three times and tied two times through its last five matches.
It'll be all about confidence and momentum when Brazil and Chile go head-to-head tonight.
