What Happened: Scotland vs. Brazil

Brazil wasted no time imposing themselves at Miami Stadium. Vinícius Júnior opened the scoring in the seventh minute, punishing a lapse in Scottish defending with a clinical finish. Scotland struggled to contain the Real Madrid winger throughout the first half, and Vinícius struck again in first-half stoppage time to put Brazil 2-0 up at the break.

Matheus Cunha extended the lead in the 60th minute, giving Brazil a three-goal cushion that Scotland never looked capable of threatening. The match ended 3-0 in regulation, with Brazil claiming top spot in Group C and Vinícius tallying a goal in all three of Brazil’s group-stage matches. His four-goal tally in the tournament matched Erling Haaland of Norway and Kylian Mbappé of France entering the knockout round.

Neymar also featured late in the contest, playing his first World Cup minutes of the tournament. Scotland’s Lawrence Shankland and the rest of the Tartan Army had no answer for Brazil’s attacking quality on a night that effectively ended Scotland’s realistic hopes of advancing.
