Brazil will be looking for the ninth win in America and the first since 2007. All they have to do is beat Peru at the Marquina Stadium and break the string of disappointments surrounding the basket in recent years. In preparation for the big game, Brazil 's Oglovo made a comparison between the current team and the one they played a year ago in the World Cup. What has changed since then?
The first interesting figure is that Brazil has become a less unpredictable team in terms of its attacks and less relies on Neymar and Marcelo, who are not on Tita's squad. 43 percent of Brazil's attacks came from the left at the World Cup, 20 percent from the center and 29 percent from the center. On the other hand, in America, the team is attacking 34% of the time on the left, 30% of the center, while 37% on the right, which has become more dominant in the current tournament, is a sign of dominance by Danny Alves.
On the other hand, Neymar's injury and leaving him outside Brazil's squad is evident in threats to the goal. Brazil kicked 104 balls in five World Cup games (41 out of the box) when Neimar was in charge of the 27th. The second kicker on the list was Cotugno with 22, Gabriel Jesus with 10 and Piramino with 7.
What happens in 2019? The number dropped to 88 kicks (35 out of the box) in the same number of games (5). Cotinine is the leading striker with 14, Pirminho with 12, Everton and Jesus with 8 each, while Danny Alves scored 8 for the goal, and Brazil has scored 10 goals so far against 8 in the World Cup.
Another point to consider is Brazil's improvement in the number of dedicated home-team matches compared to the World Cup. Brazil has tried to deliver 2,907 times in the past month and has been wrong in only 11.1% of cases. On the other hand, she gave 2,783 times in the World Cup and was wrong 17.7% of the time. Of course, it should be attributed to the matter the difficulty of rivalry since in the World Cup life is much more complex than in the Copa America.
In the last tournament, the person who became the team's leading moralist is Arthur (477 precise deliveries) compared to Cotinio (326) in the World Cup. It is interesting to note that Brazil in the cashier tournament carries more dribbles (147) than its equivalent in the World Cup (113) in Russia. Neymar or La Neymar, Brazil has Everton in this tournament, a dribble in its own right.
And what about defense? Brazil is the only team that has not yet won the tournament and Alison maintains a clean net for 450 minutes thanks to excellent ability. But not only the Liverpool goalkeeper stands out for this tournament. Brazil's defense allowed its opponents to kick 10 times into the frame in five games per tournament. In the tournament in Russia, Brazil suffered three goals (and was eliminated in the quarterfinals by Belgium), allowing their opponents to kick 16 times at her hair.
