Brazil wins by the slightest difference to Chile at the Maracana stadium. The team of 'Tite' had tried harder and managed to open the score through their scorer Neymar shortly after the end of the first half of the match. With this result, the 'Roja' is very relegated in her dream of going to the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
It happened after 40 minutes. Neymar combined with Vinicius for the left sector as in the entire first half. The PSG footballer wanted to overflow to the bottom line and was knocked down by Mauricio Isla. Immediately the referee called a penalty in favor of the locals.
Neymar himself took the ball and stood in front of Claudio Bravo. The Brazilian '10′ chose to cross the shot and the Chilean goalkeeper threw himself to the other side. In this way, the former Barcelona player approaches Marcelo Martins in the scorers table of the South American qualifiers.
NEXT CLOSING
Brazil will close its participation against the Bolivian national team. The match will take place next Tuesday, March 29 at 18:30 (Peruvian time) at the Hernando Siles Reyes stadium in La Paz.
Chile will host Uruguay in their last match of the Qualifiers. The match will be played next Tuesday, March 29 at 18:30 (Peruvian time) at the San Carlos de Apoquindo stadium.
PREVIEW OF THE MATCH
The Chilean team is looking for the feat against Brazil in the Maracana. The match is being played simultaneously with all the duels of the teams that have a chance of going to the next Qatar 2022 World Cup.
The 'Roja' needs to add a victory to continue dreaming of the World Cup. He is currently in sixth position with 19 points two from the repechage and three points from the direct standings. But it will not be easy, since it faces the leader of the South American qualifiers.
On the last day, four serious casualties were announced in Martín Lasarte's team. Erick Pulgar, Brayan Cortes, Ben Brereton and Guillermo Maripan cannot be considered for the penultimate duel. The most sensible absence is that of the Blackburn Rovers striker, who has three goals in this competition.
Likewise, the 'Tite' team is the only one who won all their matches in home condition. Argentina is also undefeated at home, but tied several times, unlike 'Scracth'.
Although he already has his ticket secured to the World Cup event, the Brazilian team called all his figures, as is the case with Neymar, who is not having a good time with PSG, but has always been the leader of the 'Verde-Amarela' and is their goalscorer with seven goals.
Reviewing the history of confrontations between the two squads, Chile has never been able to win as a visitor to Brazil, it could not even score a point in 'carioca' lands. The 'Canarinha' has a total of six victories.
