There were reminders of Brazil's glorious past all over the Philadelphia Stadium. Ronaldinho, who was part of team crowned world champions in 2002, was in the crowd, while fans waved replica World Cup trophies in the air in the stands during the 3-0 win over Haiti. Two goals by Matheus Cunha and another lovely finish by Vinicius Jr - all before half-time - ensured Brazil are up and running at this tournament. A first win, a first clean sheet, fans clad in yellow dancing in the stands. And then you remembered Brazil were facing a Haiti team more than 80 places below them in Fifa's world rankings. That the Selecao were so flat after half-time that they failed to register an attempt on target in the second half. That Haiti, who became the first team to be eliminated from the 2026 World Cup after this result, had seven shots to Brazil's two in the second half. While rivals Argentina and France have impressed in the United States, Brazil have struggled to hit top form, and faded after a bright start in Philadelphia. After the uninspiring 1-1 draw with Morocco in New Jersey in their opening Group C game, Brazil have four points from two games and are expected to advance to the last-32 stage.

Head coach Steve Clarke had asked for the "footballing Gods to be smiling down on us" – with the knowledge one point would all-but confirm their progression out of Group C - but the Scots made the worst possible start. Sloppy defending allowed Ismael Saibari to rocket the Africa Cup of Nations champions - ranked the sixth best team in the world - into a sensational lead inside the opening two minutes. Clarke shuffled his pack from Saturday's victory against Haiti, with Celtic defender Kieran Tierney starting on the left of midfield in an apparent attempt to man-mark Morocco captain Achraf Hakimi. That plan was pulled apart, though, when centre-backs Grant Hanley and Jack Hendry allowed Saibari to scoot in behind and sensationally flash his side in front. The strike sucked the life out of the jubilant Tartan Army, who again bounced down to the Boston Stadium full of optimism. They were swiftly left fearing the worst.

Back in September 1996, Antonio Freeman's performance lit up the American football stage as his two touchdowns helped the Green Bay Packers to an impressive win at the Seattle Seahawks. Months later he became a Super Bowl winner - the highest accolade an NFL player can achieve. Fast forward almost 30 years and the name Freeman is creating headlines in Seattle once again but this time in a different sport, with his son Alex scoring his first World Cup goal on Friday to help the USA to a 2-0 win against Australia to seal their place in the knockouts. "It's a full circle family moment," Alex Freeman said after the win. "It shows how great the family tree is. It shows he can be great but I can be great in my own way and how amazing it is to have a dad that is successful and can mentor me to be ready for moments like these." Freeman senior is following his son every step of the way on this World Cup journey, having been seen beaming with pride at USA matches. But given how NFL has long overshadowed football as the country's most popular sport, it wasn't easy for Alex to make the decision to initially pursue that path. Unsure how his father would react, he was initially encouraged to pursue football by his mother and step father, who also acted his first coach in the game. The 21-year-old defender revealed last year that he initially had to keep his love of football secret, but was glad he was ultimately encouraged to pursue his dream. "It just shows how quick stuff can change and to not doubt yourself," he added. "Now I'm here, it shows you can never give up. Keep pushing and you never know what chance you're going to get and how you can go and make stuff happen. "You don't know when this chance will come again."

Mexico midfielder Luis Romo was in the right place at the right time to tap into an empty net after goalkeeper Kim Seung-gyu spilled the ball following a collision with his team-mate Lee Gi-hyuk in the 50th minute. South Korea's best chance came in the 87th minute when Cho Gue-sung's close-range header was saved by Raul Rangel and the Mexico keeper was able to keep out Yang Hyun-jun's follow-up. Earlier, captain Son Heung-min had chipped Rangel before his effort was cleared off the line by Edson Alvarez, although the former Tottenham forward was flagged offside. Backed by a boisterous home support who had booed their team at half-time following a toothless first half, Mexico almost added a second in the 75th minute but Raul Jimenez's effort from a tight angle was saved. Substitute Obed Vargas also forced Kim into a fine diving save late on with a driven strike. The result continued Mexico's 100% start at the World Cup and confirmed Javier Aguirre's side will advance as Group A winners. That means the co-hosts will be in Mexico City for both their last-32 and potential last-16 tie, where they could face England if Thomas Tuchel's side win their group and first knockout match. Despite their defeat, South Korea remain in a good position to also advance thanks to their opening-day win over Czech Republic. They face South Africa next on Thursday (02:00 BST) in Monterrey. Mexico take on Czech Republic in their final group game at the same time Mexico City.

Manzambi met a knockdown in the penalty area with a first-time volley past Bosnia goalkeeper Nikola Vasilj in the 74th minute, just two minutes and 46 seconds after he came off the bench. It was only the 20-year-old's fourth touch. With Bosnia down to 10 men following Tarik Muharemovic's straight red card for bringing down Breel Embolo when clean through on goal, Ruben Vargas doubled Switzerland's advantage with a precise curling finish into the bottom corner. Vargas turned provider in the 90th minute when he set up Manzambi to score his second of the night from close range, before Granit Xhaka converted an injury-time penalty after Djibril Sow was tripped by Amar Memic. Ermin Mahmic scored a late consolation for Bosnia with a spectacular volley following a corner. "It's probably the best moment of my career so far," Manzambi said after the game. "We knew why we didn't start well and we had to be patient but we're a good team and I think we showed that." Until Manzambi's opener, Switzerland had been frustrated by their own lacklustre finishing and a stubborn Bosnia defence. In the early stages, Switzerland exploited space on the left wing because of Bosnia's narrow shape out of possession, but Dan Ndoye fired into the side-netting before failing to make contact with a low cross with an attempted flick. Ndoye saw his spectacular bicycle kick effort tipped over the bar early in the second half, before he made way for Manzambi. Bosnia began to push again and looked the stronger side, but lost momentum at the hydration break midway through the second half. Bosnia's veteran striker Edin Dzeko made his first appearance in his second World Cup and was his side's main threat, but could not muster a goal and was replaced on 64 minutes. Switzerland top group B with four points, while Bosnia are bottom with one point and a goal difference of minus three.
