The 2019 Copa América started on Friday night with a strong debut from the favorites: Brazil dominated Bolivia on their way to an easy 3-0 win at the Morumbi Stadium. Barcelona’s Philippe Coutinho had a Man of the Match performance and two goals, and while this was an easy win against the worst team in the tournament the Seleção still showed why they’re favorites.
FIRST HALF
The theme of the first half was Brazil’s inability to attack a very solid Bolivia defense, which set up on a tight and organized 4-4-2 with the two strikers working hard to hurt Brazil’s early passing.
