Richarlison's Evening

He will be Brazil's centre-forward in this World Cup and he will have already left his mark on his first meeting in the competition.

Richarlison showed his true goalscoring skills against Serbia.

If he participated little in the game, with only 25 balls touched, the attacker knew how to respond present in the right place, in the opposing penalty area.

On the lookout for a shot from Vinicius badly repelled by the Serbian goalkeeper (1-0, 62nd), he then doubled the bet on a marvel of action.

A control-bicycle sequence which has undoubtedly been the best goal of the competition for the moment (2-0, 73rd).

Serbia, in great pain

The Serbs had approached this match in a fairly defensive configuration with 5 defenders and 4 midfielders, leaving Mitrovic, the selection's top scorer, quite isolated up front.

A system that initially worked with a lot of aggressiveness from the Balkan players.

But the latter ended up exhausted and logically gave in in the second half.
