With Saša Papc's own goal, Brazil defeated Bosnia and Herzegovina 2:1 in the first minute of stoppage time, in a friendly match played in St. Gallen, Switzerland.
And there were those in the Brazilian selection who arrogantly announced a duel with Dzeko and company.
"Where is that Bosnia? We will give them eight pieces", Nejmar said arrogantly before the game.
Brazil, it's true, started violently, already in the 4th minute they took the lead with a goal from Marcelo, after an assist from Dani Alves. Instead of the announced cannonade, Brazil equalized in the 13th minute, when Edin Dzeko intercepted the pass of the Brazilian stoppers in the center and used Vedad Ibisevic, who reached the penalty area of Brazil with the ball, sent an apparently harmless ground kick, but Julio Cesar reacted disastrously, so BiH equalized!
Nejmar, Ronaldinho, Leandro Damjao approached the break, while the best opportunity for BiH was missed by Zvjezdan Misimović, whose shot ended up over the goal, so it remained 1:1.
Brazil dominated the rest of the game, but luckily got the win in the last moments of the match, when Papac reacted clumsily after Hulk's cross.
"It's a pity that we lost, we could have lasted two or three more minutes. We entered the game with too much respect, but later it got better and better and I can't be dissatisfied. We still played against Brazil, who came with the strongest team ", BiH coach Safet Sušić told Scsport.ba after the match.
