Tactical Analysis

Brazil lined up in their familiar 4-3-3 formation with Vinicius Junior, Matheus Cunha, and Rayan leading the attack. Casemiro provided balance in midfield, while Lucas Paqueta and Bruno Guimaraes linked play effectively between defense and attack.

Scotland adopted a 4-2-3-1 system and looked to stay compact before breaking through the pace of Lyndon Dykes' supporting runners and the creativity of John McGinn. Although they defended with commitment, Brazil's quick passing and movement between the lines consistently stretched the Scottish back four.

Brazil's full-backs also played an important role, pushing forward to create width and allowing Vinicius and Rayan to drift into dangerous central positions.
