Ahead of Brazil's crunch game with Colombia in the World Cup, PSG defender Thiago Silva has talked up the country's team spirit. Some of the players of Brazil were criticised for crying after the penalty win over Chile.
Despite the criticism, Thiago Silva insists that his squad are comfortable handling the pressure of a nation who expects their national team to win the tournament. Brazil have so far yet to show the form that is expected of them.
"I think we are good psychologically. We are doing what we love to do," said Thiago Silva. "There was a lot of pressure to win that match so we know we had to give all we had, but when you do things with a lot of will and desire there is no way to not be emotional."
