Brazil overran the Czech Republic in Prague

After a poor result against Panama, Brazil were desperate to bounce back in Tuesday's friendly against the Czech Republic and Tite was given an indication of the depth he has at his disposal as the Selecao overran their European opponents.

Second half goals from Roberto Firmino and Gabriel Jesus cancelled out David Pavelka's opening goal, yet it was the performance of Brazil's wide players who really caught the eye in Prague.

One of the issues Brazil have had in recent years is balance, and that was evident once more on Tuesday with some rather splendid attacking football being pinned back by some poor positional play.

Everton Soares and David Neres were called into Tite's team after half time and the pair were pivotal in the Seleçao turning the scoreline around. Everton may well have frustrated supporters with his perceived theatrics, but the Gremio forward's speed and incisive play was sensational.
