The two teams reunite in Tuesday's Brasil Global Tour clash for the first time since World Cup 2014 - and the defender says his side are ready
Miranda says Tuesday’s Brasil Global Tour clash with Germany in Berlin arrives at the perfect time for a Brazil side reborn under coach Tite.
The two teams will meet at the Olympiastadion Berlin as they face off for the first time since Germany’s victory over Brazil at World Cup 2014.
And defender Miranda is confident his side can claim victory in what will be another important step forward for Tite and his players.
“I think this is the ideal time to face them,” Miranda told a press conference in Berlin.
“We have that trust now and our heads are in the right place. It is inevitable there will be talk about 7-1, but we have to learn lessons from everything in life.
“Let's remain quiet and focus on trying to play our game. Tite is spectacular in these types of situation.”
Miranda watched on helplessly as Brazil fell to Germany in 2014 after being left out of the squad by previous coach Dunga.
And the Inter Milan stopper says he is desperate to be a major boost to his compatriots this time around.
“I get that feeling (that I should have played in 2014) because I was very well prepared but, at the same time, I accept that it was not meant to be,” he said.
“Things do not happen by chance. Today, I'm even more prepared and experienced, and I'm sure I can help the Selecao.”

Brazil are making such a hype of this friendly game not sure why!!! Yes they go their ass kicked at the World Cup, this is a friendly, Brazil can prepare all they want but matter is when the real game matters. Germany plays the game when it matter not when experimenting. At least Brazil can be humble about the loss cause after they lost to the world champion.
forget about the past. ...this is 2018 . Brazil is Brazil. ...the 5 times World cup champions. . With the young stars like G.Jesus , Neymar n Coutinho. ....anything can happen .....

I would say with out neyamr, Brazil is still very strong team with best players with best clubs & they have better players then 2014 world cup. For Germany, they are the best of the best with young players who played final with brazil in olympic and also win confederation cup jst couple of months in russia... for me i'm Germany supporter, so this game will give some hints who could win this year world cup....the best players, best team known for football.....

Germany will beat Brazil anytime again and again. With revenge on their minds, they Brazilian's would definitely be beaten silly and sore. At the world Cup, the machine wounds be oiled and the world would be expectant of a repeat of the 7:1 bashing again.

Won't scare Germany, but I guess the plan is not to ship 7 goals, first and foremost. Brazil need more technical players in midfield if they want to challenge them offensively. But with their current players, that would sacrifice defensive cover.

Is Miranda that much better than Marquinhos?

This will be a great game to see just how dangerous Brazil is in the counterattack. That's where I think they're at their best.

Brazil will have changes to the game against Germany. Brazil will be: Alisson, Daniel Alves, Thiago Silva, Miranda, Marcelo, Casemiro, Fernandinho, Paulinho, Willian, Coutinho and Gabriel Jesus.
