The Brazil national football team took the lead in Group C of the 2026 World Cup by defeating Haiti 3-0 on Friday. With the loss, the Caribbean team was eliminated from the competition with one round to spare. Earlier, Morocco defeated Scotland 1-0 and reached the same four points as the Brazilian team, which leads the group by tiebreaker criteria. The Brazilian team took to the field under pressure after drawing with Morocco in the opening match of the World Cup. Against the fragile Haitian team, in Philadelphia, USA, Carlo Ancelotti's team presented a more consistent performance and built the victory still in the first half. One of the novelties in the lineup was Matheus Cunha. The striker won the spot of Igor Thiago and needed 22 minutes to open the scoring. Going into the second half, the Brazilian team maintained the pressure and extended the lead with goals from Matheus Cunha and Vini Jr. The third and final round of the group stage takes place next Wednesday at 19h, when the Brazilian team faces Scotland in Miami. Morocco plays against Haiti in Atlanta. The Group C standings are as follows: Brazil with 4 points, Morocco with 4 points, Scotland with 3 points, and Haiti with 0 points. The team that leads the group after the third round will guarantee a spot in the round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup. But the Brazilian team needs to maintain consistency and beat Scotland to guarantee the group lead. So, Carlo Ancelotti's team is focused on winning and advancing in the competition.
