The second stint of Brazil’s coach Carlos Dunga has began well with a second victory against Ecuador at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
Yesterday, Willian scored the lone goal of the game, after a setpiece that involved Oscar and Neymar in the 31st minute, to give Brazil a deserved victory. Neymar had a host of chances, but failed to score on this occasion.
Neymar provided Willian with the assist on the goal. The Barcelona player received a short ball from Oscar and chipped over the Ecuadorian defense and into Willian’s path, who neatly tucked the ball under goalkeeper Alexander Dominguez.
In the second half, both coaches made a lot of substitutions and Ecuador had their best chance when Enner Valencia’s shot in the 61st minute was saved by Jefferson and then clear off the line by Filipe Luis.
