Seeking to qualify for the Paris Olympic Games, Brazil faced Paraguay, this Monday (5) at the Brigido Iriarte stadium, in Caracas (Venezuela), in their first commitment in the final quadrangular of the Pre-Olympic. However, the team led by coach Ramon Menezes ended up being defeated 1-0 in a match in which striker Endrick wasted a penalty kick.
The setback was marked by the weak performance of the Brazilian team. Brazil even created good opportunities to open the scoring with Endrick, with a penalty kick that ended up in the hands of goalkeeper Ángel González in the 27th minute of the first half, and with John Kennedy, who sent it out in the 43rd minute.
