Brazil coach, Tite Lauds One Player After 1-1 Draw With Nigeria

Brazil coach, Tite, singled out Atletico Madrid player Renan Lodi, who made his debut in the 1-1 draw with Nigeria in an international friendly on Sunday, as he praised him for his impressive display against the Super Eagles.

The Samba boys were held as Nigeria’s new boy scored a delightful goal in the first half before it was cancelled out by Real Madrid’s Casmeiro in the early second half.

“I know I have the pressure of the result, but you can only make unfriendly preparatory games if you let the field speak.

“For example, Lodi played a lot. Played a lot. So we had the possibility of having a more aggressive player on the sides and having one more in the team players’ hall,” Tite told reporters after the game.

Brazil who have gone four matches without a win, will face Argentina on October 15 and South Korea on the 19th in friendly matches.
