Brazil vs. Serbia final score: Richarlison launches World Cup 2022 campaign while Neymar is hurt

Brazil got their FIFA World Cup campaign launched with a 2-0 win over Serbia in Lusail on Day 5. Tite's men left it until the second half, but saw off a spirited Serbian effort with two Richarlison goals after the hour mark. The first might have been scrappy, but the second was exquisite as the Tottenham Hotspur man notched two goals for the Selecao. Vinicius Junior was involved in both with a spilled shot for the first and a sumptuous assist for the second which was executed in acrobatic style. Dragan Stojkovic's men had held firm for the first hour until Richarlison gave Brazil lift-off and the second needed just 11 minutes to arrive behind it. The South Americans hit top spot in Group G with Switzerland also picking up maximum points in their opener against Cameroon. The only concern was Neymar going off seemingly hurt late on which could be troublesome moving forward for Tite and his men. Overall, though, a satisfying start for the favorites. While you're here, 19 - Richarlison has scored 19 goals for Brazil in all competitions, the most of any player since his debut in September 2018. Pru. Tite was vindicated for keeping faith in the Spurs man as he showed his opportunist side with the first goal and sublime technique for the second. It took time to arrive, but the glut of goals was welcome for the Selecao who had struggled for clear chances up until then. Alex Sandro had perhaps the best effort when he hit the post moments before Richarlison's opener. Stubborn Serbia...
