How twitter reacted to Brazil blowing France away in friendly
Published:
Dunga’s new-look Samba Boys took another giant stride out from the shadow of World Cup ignominy by dismissing France 3-1 in a Paris friendly and in the second half, frankly, it was just like watching Brazil.
The boys in yellow are heading to north London next to face Chile in another friendly, where they are 4/5 to beat Alexis Sanchez and co, who went down 2-0 to Iran in a shock result on the same night.
Here’s how the twitterati purred in appreciation after Neymar and co bounced back from a goal down to sweep Les Bleus aside in a second-half blitz:
Alongside rampant Chelsea teammate Willian, Oscar was pivotal in instigating
the fightback

The Guardian’s Brazilian correspondent Fernando Duarte is pleased
with his team’s performance without going overly wild
Not a bad outing for the Seleção. A 3-1 win against France will always feel good.

French football journalist Julien Laurens is particularly pleased with the
performance of Manchester United target Danilo
Whoever buys Danilo from Porto will make a great signing. A Brazilian full back who can defend is rare, esp when is also good going forward
