In the last 16 of the World Cup on Tuesday, Brazilian soccer superstar Nima made a strong return to the tournament, scoring two goals and an assist, and joining forces with Yannis Oszulia, Richard Lichen and Lucas Pakida to score a point apiece, helping Brazil beat South Korea by a score of 4-1 and advance to the last 8. At this point, all six Asian teams are out of the tournament.
In the last round of group stage matches, Brazil's substitutes were able to rest their players, and Nima's return to the lineup gave them an extra boost. On the other hand, South Korea's players are already at their physical limit, despite the fact that they tried their best to win the right to qualify in the last round.
In such a comparison, Brazil had an absolute advantage. Only 7 minutes into the game, Nima missed a good header, but indirectly assisted Yunis Oszulia calmly shot to break the deadlock. Only 6 minutes later, South Korean midfielder Jung Woo-young missed a clearance in the penalty area and kicked Lee Chalichen, who scored from a penalty kick, finally opening this session.
Brazil then took their goal tally to three this term with a sublime move that saw Richard Litschen score twice. A precise cross from the left by Vinzios Zulia was followed up by a shot from Lucas Berqueda to make it 4-0.
In first-half stoppage time, Brazilian striker Lee Tsaritsyn missed a one-touch chance, which was valiantly saved by South Korean goalkeeper Kim Seung-kyu. At the break, Brazil led 4-0.
In the second half, South Korea did not give up, only one minute after the opening of the game was a great opportunity to score, Son Heung-min shot in the penalty area, the Brazilian goalkeeper Elisenbiga only with his arm to block the ball out of the bottom line.
Brazil didn't let up either, as Raffinshabiloni's shot was parried by Kim Seung-kyu after a solo performance in the box. Raffinshabiloni then took a penalty kick and a shot from a narrow angle on the right, but failed to score.
South Korean striker Hwang Hee-chan's powerful shot was parried away by Elisenbiga. In the 76th minute, South Korean substitute Baek Seung-ho scored a long-distance shot to bring the score to 1-4, and Brazil won 4-1 to advance to the last eight, where they will play the previous runner-up Croatia.
