Brazil delivered a stunning performance against India, securing a 4-0 victory at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan Stadium in Kolkata. The team showcased their skills with goals from Chelsea’s Estevao and Flamengo’s Pedro in the first half, while Flamengo’s Samuel Lino added two more in the second half. Brazil was clearly in control throughout the match, attempting 20 shots compared to India’s 9.
Vinicius had a challenging game, completing only 7 out of 13 passes and failing to make any significant contributions, including missing a crucial opportunity to score. The Real Madrid winger seems to be struggling for confidence and will need to improve his performance to secure his spot in the starting lineup for both his club and the national team. Over the international break, Vinicius managed just one goal from a penalty and no assists in three matches, appearing to be far from the form he showed at the World Cup just a few months ago.
Endrick, another Real Madrid player, also had a less than ideal outing, playing for 29 minutes without creating any scoring chances or hitting the target with his three attempts.
As the Brazil team wraps up this match, they will return to their respective clubs. Their next challenge will come against Japan on November 14th at the Singapore National Stadium, part of the Mizuho Blue Challenge four-team tournament.
