Brazil won 3-0 over Scotland to win Group C of the 2026 World Cup with a brace from Vinicius as Neymar returned to action. The final matches in 2026 World Cup Group C set the table, with Brazil finishing first after a 3-0 victory over Scotland, thanks to two goals from Vinicius as Neymar returned from a muscle injury. Morocco finished second, while Scotland waits to be among the best third-placed teams. In the first half, Scotland controlled possession but could not create danger. This control often led to mistakes that made the match easier for Brazil, with Rayan intercepting a pass to leave Vinicius with a clear goal. Right before halftime, Vinicius scored again with a header after a mistimed play by the goalkeeper. There was not much action in the second half because Brazil preferred to conserve energy. Scotland needed to reduce the goal difference but could not do enough, despite some crosses aimed at Scott McTominay that were saved by Alisson. Matheus Cunha decided the match with a goal before being substituted in the 76th minute for Neymar, who debuted in this competition after being sidelined.
