Scotland v Brazil

It’s all over in Miami – and potentially all over for Scotland’s hopes of reaching the knockout stages – as Brazil top Group C with a commanding 3‑0 win. Vinicius was simply unplayable, especially in that first half, where he had the ball in the net three times, with VAR chalking one off. Inside seven minutes, he punished McKenna’s mistake, and that set the tone. Moments later he struck again after Hendry hesitated, only for the referee to rule he’d fouled in the build‑up after intervention from VAR. It didn’t matter: just before the break he rose brilliantly to head home and underline his quality. Brazil’s control was reflected in a staggering 4.46 xG compared to Scotland’s 1.13, and Manchester United’s Cunha applied the final blow after slick play from Guimaraes opened the angle. Scotland rallied in the latter stages, but their threat in front of goal came far too late to change the story – and that may haunt them if they fail to finish among the best eight third‑placed sides. Now they face a long, gut‑wrenching wait to discover whether their journey continues. Ancelotti’s Brazil march straight into the round of 32 and look every inch a growing force. That’s all from us here in Miami – thanks for joining us, and goodbye.

FULL-TIME: SCOTLAND 0-3 BRAZIL

SO CLOSE FOR SCOTLAND! Alisson spills Ferguson’s inswinging corner, and Ralston is alive to it, snapping up the loose ball. The full‑back drives down the left and picks out McTominay, who meets it on the swivel and fires at goal – but the Liverpool keeper makes himself big to make a heartbreaking save for Brazil!

Ferguson takes the reins over another free‑kick, and it’s flicked over the crossbar by a Brazilian head – Scotland’s pressure earning them a last‑gasp corner.

Neymar’s first brace for Brazil came against Scotland, in a March 2011 friendly – he scored both goals in a 2-0 win at the Emirates Stadium in London.
