Brazil have taken the lead in their last 16 clash with South Korea thanks to a wonderfully composed finish from Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr.
Brazil are the favourites to win the competition and will play Croatia should they qualify for the quarter-finals. That looks highly likely now as the five-time champions have gotten off to the perfect start in the early stages.
The goal came when Raphinha went on a run down the right before pulling the ball back. It eventually found its way to Vinicius Jr, who stayed composed before finishing wonderfully.
Take your time.
