Brazil have easily beaten South Korea with a score of 4-1 to progress to the next round of the World Cup.
Real Madrid star Vinicius Jr managed to score the game’s first goal with a beautiful curling shot for Brazil, early on in the 7th minute.
It only took Brazil four minutes to find another goal, this time through a calm and collected penalty taken by Brazilian talisman Neymar Jr. This was also his first goal in this year’s World Cup after his unfortunate injury in the first game which forced him to miss the remaining group stage matches.
Richarlison scored Brazil’s third goal in the 28th minute after he found himself with the ball in front of the goal after a beautiful team play. The fourth goal came only six minutes later this time being scored by Lucas Paqueta.
South Korea managed to get a deserved consolation goal in the 76th minute as Paik Seung-ho slotted the ball past Brazil keeper Allison.
The Brazilians will now look ahead to their crucial quarter final tie against 2018 runners up Croatia.
