On the Brazilian side, Diniz sets up his offensive quartet for a 4-2-4.

Start of the match

The match started with a bang, but not on the pitch, rather in the stands where a fight broke out between supporters during the Brazilian anthem, which amused as much as it saddened.

The fear is that the match will not take place:

After consultation and the return of the Argentines to the pitch, out until things calm down, this clash at the top will finally begin, to the great delight of football fans around the world. Some even feel that these events which took place at the start of the match risk giving a little more spice to this already high tension meeting.

First half

The match begins with crazy intensity on both sides, especially in the duels, which does not seem to displease the Twittersphere.

In the 15th minute , the match did not seem to have lost any intensity in the duels. The meeting lives up to the image we have of South American classics.

Despite a choppy game, the determination of the Brazilians was praised.

In the 30th minute , still no decisive action, but first thrill: Martinelli arouses revolt, while Rafinha narrowly misses the target.

The Arsenal striker seems to be the only one to be dangerous offensively for the Seleção, while the referee whistles the end of the first half with a goalless draw of 0-0, but with 3 yellow cards distributed, exclusively for Brazilians.

Half time

This first half, under the sign of combat, seems to have perplexed the observers of this meeting, while others seem to have appreciated the spectacle.

We are approaching the first quarter of an hour played in this second period, and Brazil, despite more marked offensive intentions (especially Martinelli), still does not seem to find the fault. Some fear a 0-0.

In the 62nd minute , a cold shower at the Maracanã. Otamendi crucifies Alisson with a header following a Lo Celso corner. Argentina now leads 1-0 with its first shot on target of the match.

In the 70th minute, Diniz innovates, taking out Gabriel for Joelinton, while Endrick replaces Raphinha, and Brazil plays with three behind, betting everything on the attack.

Six minutes later , Messi left, little in sight in this meeting, replaced by Di Maria, Martinez took the place of Citizen Alvarez, while Martinelli gave way to Veiga, and Douglas Luiz entered for Guimaraes in favor of Brazil.

In the 81st minute , as we neared the end of the match, Joelinton, who had just entered the game, was caught in DePaul"s game, crashed into him, and received a red card, while some supporters Brazilians are already starting to leave the Maracanã stands. The match seems to be evolving at a false pace, to the great happiness of the Argentines.

The match will end without change. Brazil will attack, Argentina will defend, but the score will remain unchanged. Brazil has just suffered its third consecutive defeat in qualifying for the World Cup, and this series of defeats could well be one too many for the country of football. While certain images will remain forever engraved in memories and in the annals.
