"Estêvão and Rodrygo both scored braces as Brazil cruised to a 5-0 friendly win over South Korea. Chelsea forward Estêvão, 18, opened the scoring for the visitors at the Seoul World Cup Stadium after slotting home from Newcastle captain Bruno Guimaraes' pass in the 13th minute. Rodrygo then doubled their advantage in the 41st minute, latching onto a pass from skipper Casemiro before rolling into the bottom corner."
"The duo continued to shine and scored within three minutes of each other immediately after the restart as Estêvão struck again in the 47th minute before Rodrygo bagged his second only two minutes later. Madrid's Vinícius Júnior then capped off a dominant display, breaking down the pitch and firing home in the 77th minute. "Our journey to the World Cup started today and started well because the team played very well."
