നെയ്മാര്‍ ഇറങ്ങി, വിനിക്ക് ഇരട്ടഗോള്‍; സ്കോട്​ലന്‍ഡിനെ തകര്‍ത്ത് ബ്രസീല്‍

The Brazilian national football team comfortably secured their place in the knockout stages of the FIFA World Cup with a dominant 3-0 victory over Scotland. Winger Vinicius Junior put the South American powerhouse ahead early in the seventh minute with a clinical strike before Scotland mounted a brief defensive resurgence. Although the referee controversially disallowed an apparent second goal from Vinicius in the twenty-second minute, the Real Madrid star successfully completed his brace during first-half stoppage time. Forward Matheus Cunha then extended the Seleção's lead to three goals with a composed finish in the sixtieth minute of the match. The high-stakes encounter also marked an emotional milestone as talisman Neymar made his highly anticipated international return, coming off the bench in the seventy-fifth minute after 981 days away from the national team. Thanks to this decisive goal margin, Brazil successfully topped their competitive group as champions ahead of Morocco.
