Diniz!
After the draw at home to Venezuela, Diniz also commented on Brazil's performance: "I didn't think the team played badly. We created chances to score the second, third and fourth goals, but we didn't do it. Then we had a few counter-attacks that we shouldn't have had and in the Venezuela goal, especially, we failed at times when we shouldn't have failed. We could have adjusted our marking better and not given the player the chance to finish. We had other chances to score. We made their goalkeeper work. It's difficult to play against teams that play backwards like Venezuela. But with the volume we had, we should have taken advantage. We didn't manage to take advantage. They managed to take their chances. It's not because of the way I play or the way I don't play. There's a tendency for Uruguay to be aggressive, as Peru was. We have to be prepared for any situation. You can't keep making predictions. We have to be prepared for all scenarios. The tendency, according to what the coach likes, is for Uruguay to be aggressive. It's a prediction, but we don't know what's going to happen in the game. It's part of the context. You can't blame the pitch. But obviously the pitch they're used to is different. Added to the heat. They end up being two contributing factors, there's no denying that. But you can't just blame the draw on the pitch or the heat. We had chances and the goal they scored was avoidable. It was a marking mismatch".
Bielsa!
Bielsa said after the away draw with Colombia: "We had a lot of variation in the first half. We played better in the first half. In the second half we struggled to capitalize on the team's good moments. After we equalized, if the tie had gone on for longer, the team's chances were good, but when we went 2-1 up it was 15 minutes of a lot of disarray. We managed to withstand it and soon evened the game up. We kept creating chances and got a fair draw. The substitutions were offensive because we were losing. Progressively, with the addition of Vecino, we were able to correct this imbalance a little and the last few minutes were positive. I value getting the goals, whether they're converted or missed is vitally important. It's difficult to play in this temperature and at this time of day (5.30pm Brasilia time), but it's a difficulty for all the teams and I have the feeling that it was a good spectacle and the teams put on a good soccer match. there were some very solid performances, such as the case of (Sabastián) Cáceres and (Ronald) Araújo, in which they gave the team consistency. In any case, we had avoidable problems with set pieces, and some of the chances of scoring in the second half were also avoidable. We had a lack of coordination or defensive disorganization when we had to come back from a set-piece."

Uruguay will field a full-strength side for the match, while Danilo and Nino are out for Brazil.
