Brazil and Germany get their campaigns underway at the delayed 2020 Olympic Games from the Nissan Stadium, Yokohoma. When the two sides met in the final in 2016, Brazil were victorious on penalties. Can Germany get their revenge?
FT: 4-2. It ends with a victory for Brazil, which is nothing less than they deserved. It should have been more, in truth, but they will be more than happy with the three points on their opening day.
