Vinicius and Cunha Steal the Show as Brazil Crush Scotland

Brazil are looking more dangerous with every game.

And once again, Vinicius Junior was the main reason why.

According to match reports, Brazil defeated Scotland 3-0 in another dominant World Cup performance, with Vinicius scoring twice before Matheus Cunha completed the victory.

Before kick-off, one major talking point was the team selection.

According to the official lineup, both Neymar and Endrick started the match on the bench. Carlo Ancelotti instead trusted Vinicius, Cunha and the rest of his attacking unit to get the job done.

They did exactly that.

Vinicius opened the scoring early and continued to terrorize Scotland's defence throughout the match.

According to tournament statistics, the Real Madrid star has now scored in three consecutive World Cup matches, finding the net against Morocco, Haiti and Scotland.

At one point, Vinicius thought he had completed a hat-trick.

However, according to the match officials, one of his goals was ruled out following a foul in the build-up.

It did not stop him.

The Brazilian superstar scored again and finished the match as the clear standout performer.

The result will also reignite an interesting debate among Brazil fans.

With Vinicius in sensational form and Matheus Cunha continuing to score goals, should Neymar still be guaranteed a starting place when fully fit?

According to match reports, Neymar eventually came on from the bench and was warmly applauded by supporters. The veteran forward was also seen applauding Vinicius' performance from the sidelines earlier in the game.

For many fans, it was a symbolic moment.

The old star watching the new star dominate football's biggest stage.

Matheus Cunha then added Brazil's third goal to seal another impressive victory.

Brazil now look like one of the strongest teams in the tournament.

But the biggest story is becoming impossible to ignore.

Vinicius Junior is no longer just one of Brazil's stars.

He is becoming the face of Brazil's World Cup campaign.
