Brazil vs Chile - first half review

Good 1st half. Brazil is playing better than expected. All heart and Neymar tho. David Luiz is lucky not to have a yellow card yet given his cumulative conduct. 
Chile needs to settle down and use their superiority in midfield and stop trying to force it too soon. Neymar is too dangerous on the counter and forcing it can lead to too many of those. 2nd half id like to see chile use a 4-2-3-1 and make Brazil chase.

This game is getting very chippy. I think someone is gonna lose control and give uo a stupid penalty in the 2nd half.  Question is, with the intimidating home crowd, will the ref have the cajones to call a penalty if its against Brazil ?  That remains to be seen.

Since Brazil played over their heads in the 1st half I think half time will really benefit Chile.  The coach can get them back on game plan as  the first goal by Brazil seemed to have shaken Chile up a little.  Chile needs to assert their game of constant pressure and high intensity, circulate a little more and pick their spots a bit better for the attack.  David Luiz is losing his temperament so I would recommend passing the ball often to whoever he is covering to get him a yellow very early and possibly worse.

Lets hope the second half is as exciting as the first !

And don't forget, I predicted the Chile victory as predicted in my previous post : http://thesoccerprophet.blogspot.pt/2014/06/still-hurt-but-calling-la-roja.html
