Brazil produced one of their most entertaining performances of the World Cup so far as they swept aside Haiti with style, goals and plenty of samba football.

The star of the night was Matheus Cunha.

The Manchester United forward scored twice to put Brazil firmly in control and continue his excellent tournament. Cunha was sharp, confident and clinical in front of goal, giving Haiti's defenders a difficult evening.

Vinicius Junior was not far behind.

The Real Madrid star delivered another outstanding performance, scoring a goal and providing an assist as Brazil's attack ran riot. He even celebrated his goal with Cristiano Ronaldo's famous celebration, much to the delight of the fans inside the stadium.

Brazil looked unstoppable from the very beginning.

Their attacking trio of Vinicius, Cunha and Raphinha caused constant problems, although the night was not perfect. Raphinha was forced off with an injury, creating concern for Brazil as they continue their World Cup journey.

One of the biggest moments of the match came later in the game.

Endrick finally made his World Cup debut.

The young striker's journey has not been easy. Limited opportunities, a loan spell at Lyon and plenty of hard work have all been part of his rise. Now he can officially say he has played on football's biggest stage.

The atmosphere was made even more special by the presence of Brazilian legends in the stands. Icons such as Ronaldo Nazario and Ronaldinho watched on as the new generation entertained supporters.

According to observers, this was Brazil at their best.

Fast, creative and ruthless.

The result will give Carlo Ancelotti plenty of confidence moving forward, while the performances of Cunha and Vinicius served as another reminder that Brazil have the firepower to challenge any team in the tournament.

Brazil are indeed putting up a show
