Brazil’s 1-1 draw with Morocco marks an uncertain start to their tournament at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in New Jersey. Ismael Saibari gave Morocco the lead in the 21st minute, but Vinicius Junior equalized for Brazil just before halftime.

The draw highlights the challenge facing Carlo Ancelotti’s team as they aim for a record sixth World Cup title. Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos, and Kaka were among those present at MetLife Stadium to support their country.

Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi urged his players not to fear Brazil, which seemed to resonate with the 2022 semi-finalists who started brightly. Despite the lacklustre performance from both teams, the match was one of the standout performances in the first round.

Brazil’s unbeaten record since 1934 continues as they face Haiti next, while Morocco takes on Scotland in their second match.
