Richarlison: perfect fit
Preserved from his debut by a sore left ankle, Richarlison won the Éverton Cebolinha title and had a great performance in Lima. Climbed as a right-back, he drew attention for the collective spirit in seeking possession of the ball in the defense field and was the one who best used long balls in attack. In one, there was a cross that resulted in the penalty for the first goal. He also made the second by completing Roberto Firmino’s play and generated a penalty kick from the third goal. Gala performance.

Peruvian expelled at the end
Christofer Gonzáles and Farfán did not maintain the level of offensive production of Carrillo in Peru, but Zambrano was the biggest negative highlight thanks to an elbow in Richarlison in the 43rd minute of the second half that resulted in expulsion by video refereeing. On the Brazilian side, with freedom of movement in the midfield, Philippe Coutinho did not come close to the performance of the stands. Given the strong marks of Tapia and Aquino, jersey 11 managed to get rid of it a couple of times and seemed out of tune with the rest of the team, without rhythm and without power.

Possession without kick
Brazil had 72% possession in the first half, but only managed to submit four times. Average possession above 60% of the selection, average of shots well below the 16 of previous commitments. This data helps summarize performance that was neither bad nor good. The best spaces were found by forward Richarlison and Renan Lodi, but Firmino missed two opportunities and the volume of offensive play stopped the good scorer from Peru. In the complementary stage, Everton Ribeiro and Cebolinha assisted in the restructuring even with the drop in performance.

Quick reactions set the tone
The Peruvian team opened the scoring just after five minutes of rolling ball, in a mess for the Brazilian defense. Firmino lost possession of the ball in dispute in the middle and after a blow in which Marquinhos could not rule out danger, Carrillo appeared to score a great goal. From there, the hosts left the ball with Brazil, pressed the ball with pressure and bet on the counterattack. It didn’t work.
The Brazilian team quickly found the way. He tried two movements built on the ground passing Neymar’s foot and two long balls on Trauco’s back. In one of them, Richarlison put the center into the area, where Coutinho deflected, Neymar fought and Zambrano scored a penalty. In the collection at 27, the expected tie against the volume of play in Gallese’s right corner by the feet of the jersey 10.
Peru took the lead again in the 13th minute of the second half, when Rodrigo Caio cleared a header from a penalty area in the area, but deflected Renato Tapia’s shot on the rebound and fooled Weverton. This time Brazil reacted faster, when Neymar took a corner kick from the left, Firmino headed in and Richarlison pushed over the line. Richarlison, too, was the one who generated the counterattack of the third goal by launching Cebolinha at full speed. The ex-gremista played for Neymar, who suffered a penalty and converted at 37.
The team’s fourth goal came in extra time, 48 minutes into the second half. Éverton Cebolinha received from Everton Ribeiro in the right midfielder, made the return in depth and finished the midfielder. Gallese saved with his foot and the ball hit the right post. On the rebound, Neymar pushed to the bottom of the goal and scored his hat-trick.
