Brazil 2-1 Japan
97’ – It’s a simple goal, really, but clinical from the substitute and brilliant from Bruno who chooses to feed Martinelli at an 11 o’clock angle instead of shooting himself. The Arsenal player turns and controls before sending his strike towards the bottom right corner. Suzuki gets a touch but it goes in off the post.

88’ – Suzuki shoves Rayan to the ground down Brazil’s right. It will be another opportunity for the big man to make their way up. Japan cannot properly clear and from the next phase Vinicius Jr has a shot deflected for a corner.
Brazil’s pressure is relentless.

85’ – Suzuki lunges in on Danilo just outside the box. He is booked but of even greater concern Brazil have another chance to do more aerial damage. It’s fizzed in by Rayan and deflected for a corner that is cleared.
Brazil then go back on the attack but Bruno’s delivery from the inside left channel is overhit for a goal kick.
