GolVolt Recap

Brazil stumbled out of the gate in Group C, managing only a 1-1 draw against Morocco in East Rutherford. The North Africans dictated the early terms, taking a 21st-minute lead through Ismael Saibari. Vinicius Junior dragged the South Americans level just eleven minutes later, but Brazil failed to capitalize on that 32nd-minute equalizer. Instead of seizing control, they surrendered their rhythm to indiscipline. Late first-half yellow cards for Casemiro and Roger Ibañez bogged down the midfield, cementing a frustrating stalemate that leaves Brazil with immediate questions to answer.
