1-1 Draw
I had expected much worse
3 points in 3 qualifying matches
Without all those players draw against main rivals may look decent result for us..but in point terms we have worst ever start to WC qualifying campaign if iam not wrong
Next match Col... enthaakumo entho
Arg - 1 - 1 - Bra
the set-up to Lavezzi goal was excellant. through ball by maria, cut in assist by higuain and boom! execellant. anyone who saw yesterday's match would agree the Albiceleste were the better team. Neymar was an island yesterday. 90 minutes doing nothing. roncaglia in place of zabaletta had a superb game. he was the reason neymar was kept at bay. even mori and otamedi did their job well. overall the defense was strong. mascherano was solid in midfield. banega had a good game, hitting the post just after interval. had that gone in, the game would have ended 2-0 or 2-1 in favour of Arg, exact opposite to what pundits predicted. lavezzi and di maria, playing together in paris, had a good tempo between them. considering arg was without messi, aguero, tevez, considering arg had a bad start to the campaign, considering neymar was back for vengeance and was blocked the whole time, would say arg had a good match. 3 down. 15 more to go. still time. next against colombia. that will be tough.
he really had a good game..i thought he will be roasted by Neymar ..Originally Posted by Perumthachan
But for Bra goal..he left Costa completely unmarked..which resulted in his header hitting post

against Colombia, it would really task them to play better.
'A draw against Argentina is a good result away from home,' Brazil's second half substitute Renato Augusto told reporters.
The home side were without strikers Lionel Messi, Sergio Aguero and Carlos Tevez, but still had the depth to start the game with Angel Di Maria, Gonzalo Higuain and Lavezzi up front.
Their first chance came in the second minute but Higuain could not turn quickly enough to get a shot in after goalkeeper Alisson flapped at a cross.
Two minutes later Brazil were fortunate that no one was on hand to get a touch on Di Maria's shot that flashed across the face of the goal.
Argentina continued to cause Brazil trouble on both flanks and they finally got the goal they deserved in the 34th minute when Lavezzi stole in between a hesitant David Luiz and Dani Alves to sidefoot home from six yards following a Higuain cross.
Ever Banega almost doubled Argentina's lead in the second minute of the second half when he slammed a shot off the base of the post after Dani Alves had blocked his first effort.
But it was Brazil that got the important second goal with 58 minutes gone when substitute Douglas Costa's header came back off the bar and Lucas Lima hammered home the rebound.
The goal boosted Brazil and they enjoyed their best period in the moments after. However, Argentina took charge again as the game wore on and Higuain was unlucky not to get on the end of a cross and make it 2-1.
Brazil had Neymar back after a four-game suspension but the Barcelona striker was largely anonymous and his threat was limited to a couple of long-range shots.
David Luiz was sent off with two minutes remaining for a brutal tackle on Lucas Biglia with his foot up.
