Brazil's attacking duo, Estevao and Rodrygo, each scored twice in a dominant 5-0 friendly victory over South Korea. This win marks Brazil's third away victory in 12 matches on the road.
The Seleção started strongly, eager to build momentum after a disappointing World Cup qualifying campaign where they finished fifth in the CONMEBOL standings. Estevao opened the scoring in the 13th minute with a cool finish after linking up with Bruno Guimarães.
Brazil lined up with four forwards and two midfielders, utilizing high pressing and rapid transitions to overwhelm South Korea's defense. Rodrygo doubled the lead just before halftime with a stunning finish, and Estevao scored his second after the break.
Vinicius Jr sealed the win with a dazzling solo goal in the 77th minute, capping off an impressive team performance. Brazil's next challenge is a friendly match against Japan on October 14.
Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior's early shots from distance failed to trouble the goalkeeper, but Brazil's persistence paid off in the 13th minute. Estevao made a perfectly timed run to score the opening goal, clinically sweeping home a precise pass from Bruno Guimaraes.
As the first half progressed, Carlo Ancelotti's team looked to seal the win. Rodrygo's powerful low strike was excellently saved by Jo Hyeon-woo, while Eder Militao headed wide from close range. However, Brazil's attacking prowess eventually told, and Rodrygo doubled the lead four minutes before halftime with a beautifully curled finish into the far corner from just eight yards out.
The Selecao maintained their momentum, scoring two goals in quick succession. Estevao opened the floodgates, capitalizing on a Kim Min-jae error to confidently slot home his second goal of the match.

Rodrygo then scored his second goal, expertly tucking home Vinicius's assist to double his tally. This goal showcased Brazil's clinical finishing and attacking prowess.
The one-way traffic showed no signs of slowing as Brazil continued to dominate the match. Their dominance was rewarded in the 77th minute when Vinicius Junior scored the fifth goal, racing onto Matheus Cunha's through ball and finishing coolly between the legs of the goalkeeper.
The victory marked a significant boost to Brazil's morale, coming after a patchy run of form where they won just three of their last eight FIFA World Cup qualifiers. Carlo Ancelotti's side produced a convincing display to secure the win.
