Uruguay v Brazil Live Commentary, Nov 17, 2020

A VAR-swayed red card for Edinson Cavani and a goal chalked off for offside compounded Uruguay's second-half woes, as Brazil run out 2-0 victors with a clinical display in Montevideo to further cement their lead atop the CONMEBOL group in the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. Tite's Selecao may have not added to their first half haul, but they stymied any attempts by their hosts to wrestle the game back into the reckoning - and with the dismissal of their veteran striker as they entered the final 20 minutes, Oscar Tabarez's team just couldn't find a way back. At full-time, it finishes Uruguay 0-2 Brazil.
