With a stunning goal from Richarlison, Brazil defeats Serbia 2-0 in their opening match of the 2022 World Cup.
The Brazilian number 9 scored both of the team's goals, after a lackluster first half with no goals.
247 - The Brazilian team debuted with a 2-0 victory against Serbia in the 2022 World Cup. The match took place on Thursday afternoon (24).
Number 9, Richarlison, scored both goals. For the second, he scored a beautiful volley, extending the lead.
The first goal came in the 17th minute of the second half. The striker took advantage of a rebound from a shot by Vinícius Júnior, which was saved by goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic.
A lukewarm first half
The most dangerous chance came from winger Raphinha, who received the ball unmarked at the edge of the box and shot weakly, straight into the hands of the Serbian goalkeeper.
Vinícius Júnior also had a good chance in the 41st minute, receiving the ball at speed in the opponent's area but being stopped by a defender, who deflected the ball onto the opposing striker and won the goal kick.
Despite the lack of inspiration from the Brazilian midfield, Serbia also failed to create any real danger in front of goalkeeper Alisson's area.
