Brazil lost 0-1 to Cameroon in the World Cup Group G decider. Not only that, but the team's defender Alexis Dinis suffered an injury, while another left-sided defender Alexis Sindo was also injured, which left Brazilian manager Didi facing the thorny problem of not having an authentic left back available.
Brazil's main left back Alex Sindo left the match against Switzerland with an injury, and Alex Dinis replaced him in this match. However, the Manchester United loanee was injured again in the second half when he collided with teammate Fabienne Tévaris while defending a corner kick, making him Brazil's fourth casualty of the World Cup, with Nima, Alexis Sindo and Danny Loures being the others.
According to internal sources, Alexis Sindo is confirmed to be unavailable for the Round of 16 match against South Korea. If Alexis Dinis is also unavailable, Brazil may need center back Marquinhos Goliath to play as a left back, which undoubtedly brings a new worry to the Brazilian defense.
