On the morning of June 29, Beijing time, in the second round of the 2024 Copa America, the "five-star Brazil" who was tied to death by Costa Rica's iron bucket in the first round played against Paraguay. In the first round of the game, under the strict defense of Costa Rica's "tight fence and no hole", Vinicius, Rodrigo, Endrick, Martinelli, Savio, Guimarães and Paqueta completely suppressed the opponent with three times the opponent's possession rate and 18 to 1 shots, but they were never able to knock on the goal guarded by Sequeira.
Compared to their first opponent Costa Rica, Paraguay is also not good! In the long and arduous South American World Preliminary Tournament, Paraguay was only one position behind Brazil by two points! Even if the stars in the Brazilian team are bright, I am afraid that Paraguay, a group of South American opponents who know the roots, will not be afraid of the Brazilians, and this Copa America group stage will be a warm-up for the World Preliminary Tournament in South America, and it may be a difficult game for Vinicius and Rodrigo. Seeing the different degrees of "hip pulling" of Kane, Bellingham, and Mbappe competitors in the European Cup, Vinicius, who originally thought that he could shine in the Copa America and pull points for the "Golden Ball", has already experienced the danger ahead after the first game. If they can't win this game, the last game against Colombia, if they lose, the Brazilian team is very likely to set a record of shame of going out of the group. To compete for the Golden Ball with such results? Also compete for a few!
There is no other way but victory! Against Paraguay, Vinicius and his Brazilian brothers can only do their best to win! With the referee's whistle, the game officially begins! The Brazilian team, which was determined to win and "must win" in this game, made an all-out attack at the beginning, and the attacking combination led by Vinicius and Rodrigo launched frequent onslaught towards the hinterland of the Paraguayan penalty area. However, Paraguay did not "respect the opponent too much" like Costa Rica in the first game, but made the Brazilians' offensive invisible with a tough defense, and made the Brazilian defense not dare to be careless and overly presumptuous with a few sharp counterattacks...... The game was in a stalemate.
In the 29th minute of the game, Brazil had the best chance to break the deadlock. Paqueta's super long-range shot from the edge of the penalty area hit the arm of Paraguayan player Kubas, and the referee decisively awarded a penalty! However, in the face of this hard-won opportunity, Paqueta, who personally took the penalty, actually kicked it away! Brazil's first goal in this Copa America still didn't come! The score is still 0-0, and Paraguay escaped! Facing Kubas, who was celebrating wildly, Paqueta, who missed the penalty, was also frustrated......
However, what should come will always come! In the 35th minute of the game, the Brazilian team attacked in the middle of the front, Guimaraes sent a precise straight stopper, and Vinicius, who was inserted into the penalty area at high speed, scored with a low shot! Scored Brazil's first goal in this Copa America! 1 to 0! Brazil finally broke the deadlock with difficulty! The door to victory was opened......
The balance of power is broken, and the rest of the game is easy! In the 43rd minute of the game, the Brazilian team attacked again, Rodrigo's close-range shot was saved by the Paraguayan goalkeeper, but the ball was not far away, and the follow-up Savio shot through the goal guarded by Morinigo again! 2 to 0! Brazil extended the score!
With the door open, the game is easier and Brazil's attack is becoming more fluid. In the 5th minute of injury time in the first half, the Brazilian midfielder got the ball and attacked, Paqueta picked up a pass to the penalty area, the Uruguayan player cleared the ball and kicked it empty, and Vinicius scored twice in the penalty area! 3 to 0! Brazil basically sealed the win in the last minute of the first half! And Vinicius, after experiencing a slump in the first game, finally showed his status of "No. 1 Golden Ball Odds" again......
In the second half, the Brazilian team, which had a three-goal advantage, finally put down its burden, and the "samba football" began to dance. And in the case of falling behind 0-3, the Paraguayans also put down their baggage, and just three minutes into the second half, Paraguay's goal came! In the 48th minute of the game, Paraguay's counterattack was hoisted into the penalty area, the Brazilian team cleared the penalty area, the ball fell to the feet of Aderet, who picked up a kick and shot, the ball went straight to the corner of the goal like a cannonball, Alisson couldn't save, and had to watch the ball run into the net! Super World Wave!! 1 to 3! Paraguay gets one back!
In the 63rd minute of the game, Brazil attacked in front, and Savio's shot hit the arm of the Paraguayan defender again, and the referee decisively awarded a penalty again! Paqueta also ignored Vinicius' strong desire to complete his hat-trick and clung to the ball to clear his name, after all, missing a first-half penalty that left him with the best chance to break the deadlock for Brazil. Paqueta, who stood on the penalty spot again, did not waste the opportunity this time, and the penalty was awarded in one fell swoop, 4-1! Brazil extended their lead to three goals again! ……
The faint hope of finally recovering a city was shattered by the Brazilians with a penalty, and the mentality of the Paraguayans has begun to change, and the frustration has begun to spread, and Brazil, who are leading by three goals, may have begun to think about the next tough game against Colombia! After all, this is about the battle for the top spot in the group, the last game, Colombia, who won both of the previous two games, drew to sit on the top spot in the group, while Brazil must go all out to win to compete for the top spot in the group, otherwise they will have to meet the stronger Uruguay in the quarterfinals! After all, it is not easy for Uruguay, who have won both games and have a goal difference of seven, to fall into second place in the group......
As the clock ticked by, the game between the two sides reached its final stage, and in the 81st minute of the game, Kubas and Douglas Luiz lost their mentality in the grappling and kicked their opponents, receiving a red card and being sent off. In the final stage, the Brazilian team deployed troops on a large scale, and Rodrigo, Paqueta, and Militão all went to rest to recharge their batteries in preparation for Colombia......
In the end, with the referee's whistle, the game ended, with goals from Savio, Paqueta and Vinicius, Brazil defeated Paraguay 4-1 and won the first victory of this Copa America. At the end of this campaign, Brazil, which won one win and one draw in two games, accumulated 4 points and temporarily ranked second in the group, and the last game against Colombia, the two teams will fight for the top spot in the group! That beautiful samba, can you come back?
