Brazil without penalty or glory
Tite already warned before the match that the altitude would play a fundamental role and that is what it has been. Brazil’s game was somewhat irregular at this start in La Paz. Despite having started with a lot of prominence, little by little the height took its toll on the ‘canarinha’, where only Antony seemed to stand out in the attack. The first of Paquetá gave air to Brazil, locked behind before the attacks of Bolivia. With the light released, the green went with everything, but wasting defensive errors thanks to good pressure from the front line. When Bolivia was better, Richarlison was the smartest and took advantage of Antony’s rejection to give Brazil more wings.
