Ricardo Gareca still has no joy as head of La Roja, adding another defeat, this time against a discreet Brazil.
Chile disappointed again at the National Stadium, losing 2-1 to Brazil in a discreet match marked by defensive errors from the red, those that were taken advantage of by one of the worst Scratch that has been seen in recent times.
The surprise came one minute into the game, since a play between Darío Osorio – who once again showed that the National Team shirt is too big for him – and Felipe Loyola found Eduardo Vargas, who with a header at the far post made it 1-0.
This encouraged Chile, which had a first 10 minutes that gave hope to the public present with achieving a good result. However, this clean and jerk was quickly quelled by a Brazil that, although they had control of the ball, could not go deep with danger.
When it seemed that the first half ended with La Roja’s advantage, A lack of concentration caused by claims of an alleged penalty foul against Diego Valdés led to a Brazilian counterattack capitalized by Igor Jesús to equalize the score at 45.
The complement saw an extension of what was experienced in much of the first stage, with Brazil controlling the ball, but without reaching Brayan Cortés’ goal, while Chile went to extremes in defense.
The National Team showed some rebellion with the arrivals of Lucas Cepeda, Marcelo Morales and Gonzalo Tapia – from the National Tournament ignored by Gareca – causing approaches to the Ederson area.
But everything went to the trash can in the 89th minute, when Morales showed a weak mark against Luiz Henrique, who without anyone in front scored the 2-1 for Brazil with a corner shot and sentenced the fate of Chilewhich remains second to last in the qualifiers, with a paltry five points.
