In this context one feels that Brazil would have to massively underperform this evening if they are to get anything less than a victory.
Last week’s game between the Copa America champions and the five-times World Cup winners was fairly even until Eduardo Vargas opened the scoring for the home side in the 72nd minute.
Brazil may have denied them passage at this year’s Copa America, but Venezuela can exact mighty revenge if they can replicate Chile’s feat and strip a result from a susceptible-looking Brazil in midweek.
It doesn’t make for pleasant reading as far as many Brazil fans will be concerned, and the 2-0 defeat suffered at Chile’s hands last Thursday means last year’s World Cup hosts sit near the base of the qualifying table.
“We knew Chile would be hard”. We had four or five counterattacks that could have been killers, but we didn’t make the right choices.
Brazil will be without defender David Luiz on Wednesday as they look to pick up their first win of their South America World Cup qualifying campaign. “Obviously it hurts us not to have the best player in the world but we will try not to notice it much; Tuesday is a chance for us to get revenge”, he said. Neymar, the team’s star talisman and captain, will serve the final match of his four-match suspension incurred for a sending off during the Copa America, while David Luiz, seen as a one of the squad’s true inspirational characters, was injured against Chile. After the disastrous loss to Germany, fans were expecting the Verde Amarela would come back.
Meanwhile, despite being ranked 69 by Federation Internationale de Football Association, Venezuela is also hoping to recover from their first-round defeat against Paraguay on Thursday.
This is a fairly oddball Brazil side as far as such things go, without Neymar and several other key players to help lead the team. “We just couldn’t take advantage of the opportunities we created”. Kick-off is at 8 p.m. ET.
