Overview
- Matheus Cunha scored twice and Vinícius Júnior added a third as Brazil delivered a 3-0 win over Haiti, a performance Carlo Ancelotti said showed clear improvement and validated Cunha as a tactical option.
- The result leaves Brazil level with Morocco on four points in Group C while Scotland sit on three points and Haiti have been eliminated after two losses.
- Ancelotti confirmed Neymar should be available for the final group game and said Raphinha’s injury will be assessed as the coach balances form and fitness ahead of knockout preparation.
- Turkey were also eliminated after a 1-0 loss to Paraguay in which Matías Galarza scored early and Turkey finished the match with ten men, prompting coach Vincenzo Montella to express deep disappointment.
- Haiti’s appearance at the tournament ended after two defeats despite a return to the World Cup after 52 years, and Brazil’s rotating personnel choices now shape how the side will approach the decisive match for group positioning.
