The Brazilian team maintained the record of total success in the South American qualifiers for the World Cup in Qatar, with a prized 2-0 victory over their Uruguayan host in the early hours of Wednesday, at the end of the fourth round of the qualifiers.
Despite the absence of many players from the Samba team due to the emerging Corona virus and the infection, including Neymar, he was much stronger than his rival, who had not beaten him since 2001.
While the Uruguayan team missed its star, Luis Suárez, who is infected with the Corona virus.
Artur scored the first goal in the 34th minute, then Richarlison scored with a header from a corner kick seconds before the end of the first half.
And misfortune continued with the owners when the video assistant referee intervened to convince the referee to fire Edinson Cavani for a violent foul against Richarlison in the 71st minute.
Brazil thus achieved its fourth consecutive victory in the qualifying rounds and became the only South American country to qualify for the World Cup and win all its matches.
