Brazil’s best player last year, Claudinho has a tactical role that includes some freedom on the Olympic team. He is a left midfielder who can appear in the middle when supported by Arana, but today that autonomy is made impossible by Douglas Luiz’s dismissal. He slipped to the second wheel to assist Bruno Guimarães, maintained the high level of performance and was responsible for clearing the game from the center forward and creating chances for Brazil with good control, speed and initiative that resulted in good finishes on the 31st and 36th of a second.

Côte d’Ivoire started the match in the defense line with a line of five defenders, aware of the Brazilian team’s attack. The way coach Andre Jardin found to deal with this was to pull midfielder Douglas Luiz back alongside defenders Nino and Diego Carlos and release defenders Daniel Alves and Guilherme Arana to increase the number of players in attack. The strategy was promising, but Douglas Luiz was sent off 13 minutes into the first half and the tactical plan had to be changed.

The red card was shown by referee Ismail Al-Fateh after consulting the VAR – on the field, it was only a yellow card. Douglas Louise led Joseph Dow down almost to the edge of the area in a quick counterattack as he lost speed. Brazil kept the same line-up with one less player, but kept the full-back and fell more naturally. However, he didn’t risk much in the first half. Santos managed to provide good saves in the requests from Casey and Diallo and not much more.

Jardine decided not to make any changes at half-time, but Brazil improved their position in the second half, retained more possession and started creating chances. Anthony appeared on the goal line after a hat-trick on Ismail Diallo, but was disarmed and Matthews Cunha had good chances followed by a Claudinho volley and a cross by Bruno Guimarães. Claudinho and Guilherme Arana also had good chances, but the goal did not pay off.

The tension of the second half was a great defensive security match for Brazil, as the Ivorians did not know how to build scoring chances, and attack with the input of three strikers. One of them, Paulinho, even attempted a penalty kick in the extras. It was not due to lack of will.
