Brazilian team now faces Peru next Monday
In a complicated game, Brazil got the better of Chile and beat Chile 1-0 at Nilton Santos, in Rio de Janeiro. Now the Brazilian team will face the Peruvian team next Monday at the same stadium.
After a goalless first half, coach Tite decided to put Lucas Paquetá in place of Roberto Firminono and it worked. In the first minute of the second stage, the player entered the area to score the only goal of the match.
Shortly after the goal, forward Gabriel Jesus made a violent entry into the left flank of Mena and ended up correctly sent off. With one less since three minutes into the second half, Brazil needs to hold on to the opponent’s pressure.
With the victory, the Chilean taboo of never having won Brazil in Brazilian territory continues.
Today it is once on the other side of the key to define the semifinalists. Uruguay will face Colombia, at 7 pm, at Mané Garrincha, in Brasília, while Argentina will face Ecuador, at 10 pm, at the Estádio Olímpico de Goiânia, in Goiás
