Brazil's nine-game winning streak has now come to an end after losing to Cameroon, despite the fact that they are still one of the favorites to win the World Cup championship. Even their narrow victories over Serbia and Switzerland lacked the enthusiasm that had been anticipated of them.

The five-time champions have a history of sluggish starts, and they have gone five World Cup games with no goals in the first half. If they want to maintain their status as favorites for a little while longer, they will need to fix this.

It has been 3 decades since Brazil lost in the round of 16, and Brazil have tremendous talent coming into this match. They are obvious favorites to get through to the World Cup 2022 quarterfinals in Qatar.

Before the halftime break, Kim Young-gwon took advantage of Portugal's mistake to clear their lines from a corner to tie the game at one goal each. With 91 minutes remaining,Hwang Hee-chan perfectly timed his run to score the game's third and decisive goal.

Uruguay and Portugal were unable to beat South Korea, who could potentially meet near neighbors Japan in the quarter-finals, although their fellow Asians face their own daunting last-16 clash with Croatia on Monday as well.
