She breaks all records Argentina! The world champions overcame defeat to Uruguay in the best possible way as they forced the Brazil in its first-ever home qualifier loss World Cup prevailing 1-0! Scorer for “Albiceleste” o Nicolas Otamendi with a terrible header, in a match marred by the sad scenes that took place in the stands, between fans of the two countries and the police.
Terrible tension in the match, with two dozen fouls in the first half and the players of both teams engaging in hard marking. In this way, Argentina remained at the top of the standings, sinking the troubled Brazil to 6th place, while securing the first place in the FIFA ranking until the end of the year!
It was the Seleção who missed the best chance of the match with Marinelli taking the ball from a corner and shooting, with Romero making a stop before it crossed the line. The Brazilian players came in at the same pace pressing and in the 54th minute Rafinha and Martinelli fell to a stunning Martines.
“Maracana” froze in the 63rd minute. Lo Celso’s corner kick, Otamendi’s header and Scaloni’s team in the net and 0-1 which remained until the end!
