Carlo Ancelotti has got the response he would’ve desired from his Brazil team as they took complete control of their Group C clash with Haiti, searching for their first win of World Cup 2026.
After Brazil’s underwhelming opening draw against Morocco left a lot to be desired, Matheus Cunha netted a brace to put the Selecao in control against the Caribbean minnows, who are threatened with World Cup elimination if they lose tonight.
Vinicius Jr then made it three on the brink of half-time, latching on to a delectable lofted ball from Lucas Paqueta before slotting through the goalkeeper’s legs.
However, all was not perfect for Brazil after Raphinha, who had an early goal disallowed, was forced off with a hamstring injury.
