Scotland vs Brazil

Brazil finished top of Group C with a commanding 3-0 win over Scotland, with Vinícius Júnior delivering one of his best performances of the tournament to help erase any lingering doubts after their underwhelming opening draw with Morocco. The Seleção's attacking quality was finally on full display, a timely confidence boost heading into the knockout rounds. For Scotland, despite the heavy defeat, their historic World Cup return after a 28-year wait ends with a respectable points total, though they now face an anxious wait to discover whether their group-stage record is enough to sneak through as one of the eight best third-placed teams.
