Lucas Paqueta gets in on the action. Another attack down the left flank and Paqueta hits a beauty on the volley from about 20 yards out.Well, that’s just a joy to watch. The Brazil we all know and love. It starts and ends with Richarlison, who passes to Marquinhos before the favour is eventually returned in a quickfire move.That’s Richarlison’s third in Qatar. He scored two against Serbia, including what is probably still the goal of the tournament.
Promising signs though, he’s clearly got his eyes on glory in what is only his second match of the tourmanent.It’s all calmed down a tad, inevitable after that early flurry, and South Korea have the chance to get try and find their way back into the match. Son whips it into the box but it’s easily dealt with by Richarlison.GOAL. Brazil 2 South Korea 0converts from the spot. That’s his seventh World Cup goal, and puts him one behind the great Pele on the all-time Brazilian scorers list.
