Vinícius Júnior opened the scoring in a 3‑0 win that sent Brazil through Group C and knocked Haiti out of the World Cup. The five‑time champion struck in the 32nd minute, then set up Matheus Cunha for a rebound that made it 1‑0. Cunha capped the first half with a second goal, leaving the Caribbean side unable to recover today across the continent.

Ancelotti praised a complete first half and a controlled second, yet admitted the team lacked intensity. The match, played at Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field before 68,324 fans, highlighted Brazil’s dominance and Haiti’s historic debut. With Neymar sidelined, the Seleção still face Scotland next Wednesday, while Haiti joins the ranks of teams eliminated before the knock‑outs before the tournament’s climax.

Cunha’s two goals and Vinícius’s assist made the game a showcase of Brazil’s attacking flair. The result leaves the Seleção in a strong position for the round of 16, while Haiti’s first World Cup appearance ends in a first‑round exit. The 3‑0 scoreline confirms Brazil’s readiness to challenge the other group leaders on the road to the final for the fans today.
