  • 96'
    FT: Brazil 1-0 Switzerland! All over in Qatar and Brazil take the points. After a quiet first half, Vinicius had a goal disallowed by VAR before Casemiro netted the only goal of the game seven minutes from time. Brazil are through while Switzerland may need to beat Serbia if Cameroon defeat Brazil, otherwise a draw will be enough. That's all from us, thanks for joining us and see you again soon!
  • 96'
    Corner for Brazil and they are just playing out time.
  • 94'
    Another chance for Rodrygo and the shot is well blocked by Akanji. Corner.

  • 83'
    Brazil finally score! Vinicius plays for Rodrygo and Casemiro's shot deflects off Akanji and it goes into the far corner!

    Swiss double sub: Embolo off, Seferovic on while Aaebischer is on for Sow.

    Brazil double sub: Richarlison and Raphinha are replaced by Jesus and Antony.
  • 72'
    Brazil continue pressing for a goal.
  • 69'
    Brazil win a free-kick just to the side of the box, Switzerland don't like the call and I think Vinicius goes down easily.
  • 66'
    No goal says the VAR!! Richarlison was offside by a considerable distance and he came back to touch the ball.
  • 64'
    Vinicius puts Brazil ahead! Switzewrland lose the ball, Casemiro gives the ball to Vinicius, he gets past the defender and then beats the goalkeeper! There could be an offside in the build-up and he makes a play at the ball!!
  • 62'
    A Brazil ball into the box goes straight to Sommer.
  • 60'
    The Swiss are really pressing here and Casemiro has to block Fernandes' shot from 25 yards.

    Swiss double sub: Vargas and Rieder off, Fernandes and Steffen on.
  • 58'
    Brazil sub: Guimaraes on for Fred.

  • 45'
    Brazil HT sub: Rodrygo on for Paqueta.
  • 45'
    HT: Brazil 0-0 Switzerland! Half-time in Qatar and a draw is very fair. Vinicius had the best chance when his volley from Raphinha's cross was well saved by the goalkeeper. Raphinha had a half chance from distance in the only other real shot at goal in the first 45. Back for more shortly!
  • 45'
    45+1: The Swiss win a corner and the defence clear just as Embolo was about to score from Akanji's flick on.
  • 45'
    Sommer knocks the corner away to safety.
  • 45'
    One added minute,
  • 44'
    The floodlights go off for around 10 seconds! The back-up generator I assume has kicked in.
  • 44'
    Raphinha wins a free-kick for Brazil.
  • 42'
    Nothing major to report in the last few minutes.
  • 39'
    The Swiss attack through Rodriguez, he picks out Vargas in the middle before he is crowded out.
  • 37'
    Brazil win themselves a corner.
  • 34'
    Both teams are taking this very cautiously. A draw would not see either side progress, but it wouldn't be a bad result for them.

    Brazil have a go from distance through Raphinha and Sommer catches easily.
  • 30'
    Brazil enjoy some possession as they wait for the opening.

  • 25'
    Free-kick to Brazil after a Swiss attack comes to nothing.
  • 22'
    I think this will be goalless at the interval.

    It's a very even contest so far and few chances.
