Vinícius Jr Equals Ronaldinho’s World Cup Record as Brazil Beat Haiti 3-0
Brazil rediscovered their winning touch with a commanding 3-0 victory over Haiti in Philadelphia. The match was defined by an exceptional showing from Real Madrid winger Vinícius Jr. Vinícius Jr was directly involved in all three goals and has now registered six goal contributions in his first six World Cup outings. That tally matches the mark set by Brazilian great Ronaldinho, who took ten games to reach the same number between 2002 and 2006. Manager Carlo Ancelotti’s bold decision to start Matheus Cunha paid off as the Manchester United forward opened the scoring and added a second. Vinícius Jr wrapped up the win just before half-time, though Brazil did suffer a scare when Raphinha went off with a leg injury.
