But the Selecao should have registered even more goals.

Raphinha was guilty of missing a golden opportunity after a stunning Vinicius cross in the first half.

After Vinicius received the ball in a dangerous area, he made his way into Ghana’s box and proceeded to find Raphinha who was arriving at the back post with an insane cross with the outside of his boot.

Unfortunately, Raphinha did not do Vinicius’ pass justice and could only put his effort from close range well over the bar.
