We deserved to win it is fair
Revenge for UruguayIn Montevideo, all eyes were on Chile defender Gonzalo Jara
and Uruguay striker Edinson Cavani as the two men lined up against each other
for the first time since their infamous clash in the Copa America in June. The
pressure on coach Gerardo Martino was eased by Biglia’s 19th-minute goal, the
Lazio midfielder tapping in after Cristian Zapata failed to deal with Ezequiel
Lavezzi’s low cross. The Bayern star opened the scoring with a tap-in on 22
minutes from Willian’s low cross and then turned provider with a jinking run and
pass for Renato Augusto for Brazil’s second on 57 minutes.Jara was later banned
for three matches over the incident.. Argentina’s Angel di Maria falls while
vying for the ball with Colombia’s Cristian Zapata.Bayern Munich star Douglas
Costa scored one goal and created two others as Brazil swept aside the challenge
of the Copa America semi-finalists. Two-time World Cup winners Argentina — who
had taken just two points from their first three matches — claimed their first
win, downing Colombia 1-0 in Barranquilla thanks to a first half goal from Lucas
Biglia. Brazil’s victory over Peru left them in third place with seven points,
ahead of Paraguay and Chile on goal difference.
Five-time champions Brazil had a
virtuoso performance from Costa to thank for their win.On that occasion Cavani
was sent off after lashing out at Jara when the Chilean defender attempted to
poke a finger into the Uruguayan striker’s backside. In Montevideo, Uruguay
gained revenge for their stormy Copa America quarter-final defeat China electric water heater faucet
Manufacturers to Chile earlier this year with a 3-0 win. The victory pushed
Uruguay up to second place in the standings with nine points from four games,
three points adrift of surprise early pacesetters Ecuador, who made it four wins
out of four on Tuesday with a 3-1 win over Venezuela. We could have scored
another goal,†said Martino, who said his happiness was more for his players
than for himself. "We deserved to win, it is fair.
But the Argentinians will
feel confident that they can mount a charge back up the table when qualifiers
resume in March, when injured stars Lionel Messi, Sergio Aguero and Carlos Tevez
should all be fit and available once more.Brazil meanwhile produced their best
performance of the qualifying campaign to date with a 3-0 defeat of Peru in
Salvador. Brazil’s third came when Costa’s fierce strike was parried away by
Peru keeper Diego Penny, leaving a simple finish for Filipe Luis on the rebound.
Argentina’s win in Colombia lifted them to sixth, just outside the top five
qualifying spots.
Argentina and Brazil reignited their 2018 World Cup qualifying
campaigns with important victories on Tuesday as Copa America champions Chile
crashed to defeat in their grudge match with Uruguay. The lingering tension from
that encounter was evident in an ill-tempered game at the Centenario and
threatened to boil over around the 20-minute mark. (Photo: AFP) Argentina and
