Gilberto subbed on for Brazil
Gilberto was subbed on in the 71st minute in the Brazil vs. Australia game, which Brazil won 2-0.
Gilberto replaced Emerson and did an excellent job of sealing Brazil’s defence at 1-0 down. He virtually slotted in between Brazil’s two centre backs and he cleared about 5 aerial threats with his head. One of his dodgier moments came when he ran up the pitch and then passed the ball off the field, but he wouldn’t be Gilberto if he didn’t do that.
Go Gilberto, and well done Brazil!
