Brazil midfield Andreas Pereira, who plays in England, says there is no big gap between two teams but did point the home side's trophy drought.

 “About Brazil and England, we don’t necessarily feel that there is a big, big gap," Pereira said, as per the Mirror.

“The last time Brazil won a tournament was fewer years ago than when England won a tournament.

"We could say there is a gap. But Brazil will always have big, big players and a big team.

"England as well. I think they have a lot of players that I think the Brazilian fans like. It is more the flair players - players like Rashford and Saka.

“We respect them and we know it is going to be a tough game but we are ready and we know what we are capable of. We want to win the game. We are Brazil. We always want to win everything.”
