Match Breakdown

First-Half Blitz: Brazil established total dominance before the break. Forward Matheus Cunha opened the scoring in the 23rd minute after a rebounded Vinícius Júnior shot. Cunha struck again in the 36th minute with a powerful left-footed drive into the top corner. Deep into stoppage time, Vinícius Júnior added a third by converting a lofts pass from Lucas Paquetá.
Resilient Haitian Response: Reverting from a 5-4-1 to a 4-4-2 formation in the second half, Haiti defended bravely and managed to test Brazil's keeper Alisson Becker on multiple occasions, keeping the scoreline respectable despite lacking quality in the final third.
Injury Setback: Brazilian forward Raphinha had a beautiful goal ruled out for offside early on and later limped off with an injury in the 39th minute, replaced by Rayan.
Group C Standings: Following Morocco's 1-0 win over Scotland, Brazil now sits in pole position in Group C with 4 points and a +3 goal differential heading into the final group matchdays.
