“I didn’t expect this, I couldn’t be happier, but I always want more and I don’t want to remain at this level. Thigs are flowing now.
“We have great players, not only with the Selecao but in Brazil as a whole. Players keep coming in and coming out but we never lose rhythm. We were great out there tonight.”
Chelsea star Willian was also on target to add to a Semih Kaya own goal, and Brazil have now won their last five games without conceding a single goal.
