Brazil’s two-goal hero Richarlison believes Ghana has a good team to make a mark at the World Cup in Qatar in November. The Tottenham forward netted a first half brace as the five times World Cup winners brushed aside the African side in a rampant display.
Despite the dominant first half display, the Selacaos failed to score in the second half and Richarlison credits that to Ghana’s strength as a team.
“Good game, I think Ghana has a big team and today Brazil did well but Ghana has a good team,” he said in a post-match interview.

Marquinhos broke the game’s deadlock after just eight minutes when he rose high to meet a Raphinha corner kick.
Richarlison doubled the lead just before the half hour mark after connecting to an excellent pass from Neymar, before adding his third five minutes to half time with a strong header.
