Haiti proved to be easy prey for Brazil, as expected. The “Seleção” had no problem in defeating the Caribbean group 3-0 in Philadelphia and securing a place in the “32” of the World Cup as they reached 4 points in the 3rd group of the competition. With two defeats in the same number of matches, the Haitians bid farewell to the competition as they took 4th place in the group.
Without… wanting to impress with their performance, Ancelotti’s Brazil achieved a comfortable 3-0 at half-time and cleaned up the game. Mateus Cunha with a close-range shot in the 23rd minute and with an excellent finish from Vinicius’ assist in the 36th minute scored the first two goals, while Vinicius in the 45th minute + 3rd minute made it 3-0, scoring for the second time in the tournament. In the second half, the Brazilians conserved their strength, completely took their foot off the gas and are now focusing their attention on the next match, while they are anxious about the condition of Rafinha, who left with a muscle injury at half-time.
