NEW DELHI: Favourites Brazil started their FIFA World Cup 2022 campaign with a commanding 2-0 victory against Serbia at Lusail stadium on Friday. Richarlison scored both the goals for the five-time champions in their opening Group G match.
After a goalless first half, the World No. 1 side brought out its best in the second half to outclass Serbia, who looked out of depth in the end. Brazil broke the deadlock when Richarlison scored from close range in the 62nd minute, before the striker added a spectacular overhead kick to double the lead 11 minutes later.
