Doha, Brazil struggled without Neymar at the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. Still, the five-time champions played well enough to secure a spot in the next stage.

Brazil overcame the absence of its injured star to beat Switzerland 1-0 and make it to the round of 16 with a match to spare in Group G.

Casemiro scored in the 83rd minute to break the deadlock in a game in which Brazil had difficulties creating scoring chances without its main playmaker.

The win gave Brazil six points from two matches, leaving Switzerland with three. Serbia and Cameroon, which drew 3-3 earlier today, have point each.
