2-1! Brazil scores a last-minute winner, overtakes by 1 point to enter top 4, Manchester City star assists, substitute savior delivers.

In the 9th round of the World Cup South American qualifiers group stage, a key match commenced as Brazil faced Chile away. After the previous 8 rounds, Brazil's 3 wins, 1 draw, and 4 losses were disappointing, currently accumulating only 10 points and ranking 7th, tied with Paraguay behind them who played one more match, placing them in the playoff zone. Winning this match would directly surpass Ecuador and rise to 4th place, so Brazil, even away, would definitely strive for victory. Chile, with 1 win, 2 draws, and 5 losses accumulating 5 points, ranks 9th from bottom and will also全力争取3分冲击更高排名.

In the starting lineup, Jesus led the attack, Rodrigo and Savinho were on the wings, Rafinha—who recently performed excellently at Barcelona—returned as the attacking midfielder, Andre and Paqueta formed the double pivot, Abner, Gabriel, Marquinhos, and Danilo composed the defense, with goalkeeper Ederson.

In the first half Brazil dominated possession, but most of the time it was more noise than substance, attacks often ending with long-range shots, which is a major issue for this Brazil national team. Just 2 minutes into the match Chile scored, Felipe Loyola crossed from the right, Vargas headed in at the back post, 1-0, Chile had a dream start!

Starting by digging themselves into a "hole," the subsequent match essentially became Brazil's half-court进攻演练, but the goal迟迟未来. In the 15th minute Rodrigo cut inside from the right and curled a shot, the ball went wide; at 28 minutes Jesus advanced into the box and shot, the ball missed; at 45 minutes, Brazil's efforts finally paid off, Savinho broke through on the right and crossed, Jesus headed home at the goalmouth, 1-1! This goal was crucial, equalizing before halftime显然比带着1球落后进入下半场好得多.

After the break, at 52 minutes Rafinha advanced and scored from a one-on-one chance, but the assistant referee raised the flag for offside; at 61 minutes Savinho连续突破之后倒地 on the right side of the box, but the referee ignored it. From slow-motion replay, Pavez确实绊到了 Savinho when extending his leg, and the referee was nearby, this decision also sparked不满;

At 68 minutes Savinho was substituted, Endrick came on, Brazil's super替补又来了! At 81 minutes Osorio curled a shot from the right side of the box, the ball went wide; at 85 minutes Martinelli entered, replacing left-back Abner, Brazil made a搏命式的换人. At 89 minutes Luis Enrique curled a shot from the right side of the box and scored, 2-1, this goal基本相当于绝杀了! Ultimately Brazil险胜 Chile 2-1, gaining 3 points and重返前4!
