| Comment |
| A crowd of 39458 arrived at the stadium (with a full capacity of 50000 terraces) to see Argentina Under-21 - Brazil Under-21! The weather is very bad today, it is snowing heavily. It will be a hard game! The players of Argentina Under-21 are playing the high ball very well. They are winning almost all of the aerial plays. The players of Argentina Under-21 are able to use their long shots ability. Two players from Brazil Under-21 seem to be switching their positions on the field: Luís das Neves changes with Murilo Viana. Due to the last movements from the players of Brazil Under-21, it seems that their manager ordered them a formation change. The defensive line of Brazil Under-21 is able to put the opponent forwards in offside frequently. Two players from Argentina Under-21 seem to be switching their positions on the field: Juan Abad changes with Claudio Pietravallo. The players of Argentina Under-21 are winning the majority of one-on-one confrontations. 10 minutes are counted, Luís das Neves passes to Saimon Torres who cleverly waits for Luís das Neves to get himself clear to receive the return ball... he controls well the ball, but Juan Abad tells him who's the boss there and recovers it. Brazil Under-21's players seem to be lacking some strength in comparison with their opponents on the hard pitch. 21 minutes according to the clock, Luís das Neves passes to Luís Vouzela who cleverly waits for Luís das Neves to get himself clear to receive the return ball... Luís das Neves stylishly gets around an opponent player, but when he gets to Román Da Silva he lacks the talent to beat him. Good save. The marking style applied by Brazil Under-21's players is working very well today. At half time, the result is 0-0. So far, the home side is not keeping much of the ball possession. Brazil Under-21 held the ball 73% of the time, while Argentina Under-21 had it for much less with only 27%. With some surprise, Argentina Under-21 is keeping this result very well. Let's see for how much longer. After 48 minutes, Louis Aguiar crosses brilliantly to the box where Luís das Neves gains position and heads the ball... but Román Da Silva was paying attention and saves it easily. After 56 minutes, Luís das Neves passes to Saimon Torres who cleverly waits for Luís das Neves to get himself clear to receive the return ball... he controls well the ball, but Javier Méndez tells him who's the boss there and recovers it. Another play at 72 minutes, Gerardo Alvarez receives a short pass from Javier Méndez. Still very far away from the box, he slowly moves towards the goal... and without warning Gerardo Alvarez shoots from 30 yards, but the ball goes straight to the hands of Osmair Valverde. After 80 minutes, Saimon Torres makes a pass to Luís das Neves all the way on the other wing. He is going to make a cross... the cross goes towards the goal and into the back of the net!! Luís das Neves doesn't even know how he scored that one. An unusual goal for Brazil Under-21! The result is now 0-1. At the end of the 90 minutes, the visitors undid the draw and won with a lot of difficulties. |
