Brazil begin their quest for Gold in Men’s football at the Olympic Games in Tokyo with an encounter against Germany in Group D. Coach Andre Jardine has included veteran Dani Alves in the side as captain and the former Barcelona man will be hoping to inspire his country to successive gold medals at the Olympics after winning it last time around in Rio.

With Premier League stars like Richarlison and Gabriel Martinelli in their ranks, Brazil will be increasingly hopeful about their chances of making it out of the group, which also includes the Ivory Coast and Saudi Arabia apart from their next opponents Germany.

Much like their opponents, Germany will also fancy their chances of progressing to the next round. Since both teams come on the back of massive pedigree at the international stage, there is the weight of expectation to deliver as well. However, the Olympics does not always have the best of players on display with the teams fielding U23 sides. So it isn’t necessarily as fierce as Brazil and Germany locking horns in a World Cup. Irrespective of that, winning an Olympic medal is still a really special achievement for any athlete and as such, both sets of players will be determined to do the same.
