The Brazilian soccer team lost this Tuesday, 4-2, against the Senegalese counterpart, as they were unable to match the Canarian match in the stands of the Estádio José Alvalade, in Lisbon, who experienced the private meeting in a great atmosphere.
Lucas Paquetá (11 minutes) and Marquinhos (58) scored the goals for the South Americans, but Habib Diallo (22), an own goal from the Brazilian central defender (52) and a brace from Sadio Mané (55 and 90 +6), the second from the penalty spot, gave victory to Senegal.
The green of the stands of the Estádio José Alvalade was transformed, for one day, into the yellow color of the national team’s jerseys, as the huge Brazilian community in Lisbon did not miss the opportunity to support the team, filling the leonine venue. .
Under the slogan “With racism there is no game”, a campaign launched by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) for the tour of private matches, with Guinea-Conakry, in Barcelona, and with Senegal, in Lisbon, the match was live and full of moments.
The atmosphere was festive and the initial goal, in the 11th minute, came to encourage Alvalade’s crowd even more: Lucas Paquetá responded in the best way to Vinícius Júnior’s fantastic cross, with a perfect pass.
Richarlison then had a wonderful opportunity to open the scoring, but fired wide into Mory Diaw’s face, with Senegal restoring the tie on 22 minutes, through a strong finish from Habib Diallo, early on, reloading a cross.
Until the break, the rhythm of the game calmed down, although Sadio Mané put Ederson’s attention to the test, but the second half had much more incidents, with three goals in the space of six minutes, which favored the visiting team, to be placed in front. .
In an excellent counterattack play, Sadio Mané executed a beautiful cross to discover a teammate, who tried to finish off Ismaila Sarr in a dangerous area, but Marquinhos, with unfortunate anticipation, betrayed Ederson and gave the goal to Senegal.
Even though the South Americans were recompor of the Reviravolta, the Africans were already winning 3-1, not the best moment of the night, starring the inevitable Sadio Mané, with a spectacular goal from the angle of the Ederson beacon, which was stuck, unsuccessfully.
Surprised by the two almost consecutive goals from Aliou Cissé’s formation, the Brazilians managed to reduce soon after, in minute 58, with captain Marquinhos recovering from his own goal and throwing, with some luck, a kind of hat at Diaw.
Brazil made an effort to seek at least equality, with Ramón Menezes changing teams looking to refresh the offensive attacks, but always colliding with Senegal’s good defensive organization, which threatened in quick offensive transitions.
Already in discount, Ederson commits a foul on the isolated Nicolas Jackson and ‘offers’ the maximum penalty to Sadio Mané, with the Bayern Munich striker deceiving the Manchester City goalkeeper and sentencing the final result, at 4-two.
