Tuesday night, Brazil easily defeated Peru 4-0 in their World Cup qualifying match.
Raphinha of Barcelona gave the home team the lead with a penalty kick in either half. Off the bench, Andreas Pereira and Luis Henrique expanded Brazil’s lead.Gabriel Magalhaes, an Arsenal player, had another strong defensive outing. With 81 touches, he had a 95% pass completion rate. Three recoveries and 100% of the tackles he made were won.The 26-year-old is at the peak of his abilities right now, and after two outstanding performances this month, he may establish himself as his nation’s indisputable starter.Although Magalhaes has frequently been overshadowed by Eder Militao, the Gunners center defender has benefited from the latter’s withdrawal due to an apparent injury.
The former Lille player is anticipated to arrive back in London over the next 24 hours in order to get ready for Saturday’s away away Premier League kickoff against Bournemouth.With goals scored, Arsenal is currently third in the league standings, trailing only Manchester City. They trail leaders Liverpool, who play Chelsea at Anfield on Sunday, by just one point.The Gunners have a strong potential to move up the standings, but the Cherries are a formidable opponent, especially at home, so it won’t be an easy task.Magalhaes and William Saliba have an excellent defensive duo going. This season, he has somewhat outperformed the Frenchman with important goals from corners.On Saturday, the supporters of the team will undoubtedly be hoping for another headed goal from him.
