match commentary
- ▸ Brazil were technically gifted with a wand of a left foot as they ran out deserved winners.
- ▸ Japan were press-resistant and supremely technical in tight spaces as they fell to a narrow defeat.
- ▸ Early change for BRA on 45' — Endrick came on (for Lucas Paquetá because of an injury); possibly an enforced knock.
