Following a hard-fought draw against Morocco that drew heavy criticism, Brazil silenced their detractors today in Philadelphia.
The Seleção took firm control of the match in the first half, courtesy of a brace from Matheus Cunha.
Despite missing several opportunities and seeing goals disallowed for offside in the second half, they comfortably brushed Haiti aside with a 3-0 victory to climb to the top of Group C.
However, anyone who watched the game might feel the 3-0 scoreline understates Brazil's dominance.
Carlo Ancelotti's side had two goals ruled out for offside—Raphinha’s strike in the 12th minute and substitute Endrick’s effort in the 78th minute.
The team also squandered at least three other clear-cut scoring opportunities.
With two matches played, Brazil are tied with Morocco on 4 points but sit atop the table due to a superior goal difference (+3).
Morocco (+1) had briefly taken the top spot after defeating Scotland 1-0 in the earlier match, but were displaced by Brazil's commanding win.
Scotland, who opened their campaign with a win over Haiti, sit in third place with 3 points and will face Ancelotti's men in their final group fixture.
