We're underway in this friendly clash in Singapore.
Brazil return to action for the first time since their defeat at the hands of Peru in their last friendly game. Luis Abram scored the only goal of the game at United Airlines Field in Los Angeles to guide Peru to the victory. The Selecao have gone two games without a win since triumphing in the Copa America final and Tite will want to rediscover the winning feeling today.
Hello and welcome to the live commentary of the friendly clash between Brazil and Senegal at Singapore National Stadium.
Senegal have won two of their last three matches since being beaten in the final of the Africa Cup of Nations by Algeria in July. They were surprisingly beaten by Liberia before bouncing back in their Africa Nations Championship qualifier, while they secured a 1-0 victory over Guinea in the first leg of their second-round clash. Aliou Cisse will be keen to make a statement today against Brazil.
BRAZIL (4-2-3-1): Ederson, Dani Alves, Marquinhos, Thiago Silva, Alex Sandro; Arthur, Casemiro; Gabriel Jesus, Philippe Coutinho, Neymar; Roberto Firmino.
BRAZIL SUBS: Weverton, Eder Militao, Richarlison, Santos, Rodrigo Caio, Matheus Henrique, Renan Lodi, Fabinho, Lucas Paqueta, Everton, Gabriel, Marcinho.
The players are out on the pitch, so we should be underway shortly.
Neymar has been frustrated to mark his 100th cap with a goal. It has not clicked for the forward in the final third amid a few offside decisions, while he missed a glorious chance after Senegal equalised, where he was denied by a good stop from Alfred Gomis. Neymar has to improve in the second half.
Thanks for joining our commentary. Until next time, goodbye.
Brazil are next in action on Sunday against Nigeria in a friendly clash, while Senegal take on Guinea next week in their Africa Nations Championship qualifying game.
