Brazil beat Egypt 2-1 on Saturday (June 6) at Huntington Bank Field in Cleveland, Ohio, in their final fixture before their World Cup opener. More than 64,000 people were in attendance.

The goals

  • 6'Bruno Guimarães opens the scoring
  • 10'Mostafa Abdelraouf, known as Ziko, equalizes
  • 46'Endrick scores Brazil's second, right after the restart

Four minutes separated the first and second goals of the match; the winner only came in the first minute of the second half.

What the match was about

It was worth nothing in points and everything in fine-tuning: it was the last test with the full squad before the tournament begins, and the only one where mistakes still come at no cost.
