The fifth knockout tie between Brazil and Mexico saw the Seleção get the better of El Tri as they ensured qualification for the quarter-finals.It was Neymar who opened the scoring for Brazil in the 51th minute with a sliding tap-in from Willian's assist, registering his second goal in the World Cup. With 88 minutes on the clock, the substituted Roberto Firmino cemented the lead with a fluky touch that came after Ochoa denied Neymar.Consequently, Brazil will now face either Belgium or Japan in the quarter-final.Here's how Twitter reacted to the encounter.My pre-World Cup tip was Brazil.My tip remains Brazil.They look a formidable team - strong at the back, tough in midfield, thrilling at the front. #BRAvMEX— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) July 2, 2018How we gunna beat Brazil when their goalie looks like fucking Thor— Emiliano 🇲🇽 (@Emiliobarrow) July 2, 2018Neymar's decision making at the #WorldCup be like 👀 pic.twitter.com/M6JDGyAq1u— ShotOnGoal (@shotongoal247) July 2, 20181994: Last-161998: Last-16 2002: Last-162006: Last-162010: Last-162014: Last-162018: Last-16The #WorldCup last-16 curse continues for #MEX, this time falling at the hands of #BRA pic.twitter.com/3N3ZEPh5bv— Match of the Day (@BBCMOTD) July 2, 2018Brazil's record under Tite:25 games20 wins4 draws1 defeat54 goals18 clean sheets6 goals concededSeriously impressive stuff. pic.twitter.com/QvkiutciX2— Squawka Football (@Squawka) July 2, 2018Trying to work out why Bobby Firmino doesn't start ahead of Gabriel Jesus for this Brazil side.#WorldCup #BRA #MEX #BRAMEX pic.twitter.com/3U0ZLIZNnc— 🇧🇷 vs 🇲🇽 Football Tweet (@Football__Tweet) July 2, 2018Hope Brazil gets their ass whopped next game I don’t want a cry baby ass team winning the World Cup fuck this— Bridgette Quiroga (@bridgette0511) July 2, 2018SOUTH KOREA DID NOT TAKE OUT THE #1 TEAM IN THE WORLD FOR US TO LOSE TO BRAZIL #BRAMEX pic.twitter.com/IJlvbU3ptw— 🇲🇽 (@kurtapiika) July 2, 2018mexico is really going home huh 😔🤟🏻 #BRAMEX pic.twitter.com/VMrLywf6mX— Kaio (@KaioRiser) July 2, 2018Every time you touch Neymar... pic.twitter.com/O8FquSfe7o— FTS Football (@FromTStands) July 2, 2018Neymar at it again. pic.twitter.com/sIv6NpoFPW— Daniel Attias (@Dan_Attias) July 2, 2018Neymar has the lowest pain threshold of any player in World Cups since Opta stats began.— Gary Lineker (@GaryLineker) July 2, 2018When you touch Neymar pic.twitter.com/tgkJJPsev5— Troll Football (@TrollFootball) July 2, 2018Live scenes of Brazil vs Mexico. pic.twitter.com/nbmacaRr2Y— Krowd9 | 2018 World Cup 🏆 (@Krowd9) July 2, 2018Korea talking to Mexico #MEX #BRAMEX pic.twitter.com/NhJsWRNg67— 🍏Πέτι Έντι🍎 (@EdAbelG) July 2, 2018It’s a Bird, it’s a Plane, it’s Mexico going home 👋🏽😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 pic.twitter.com/cNcfVHJgzP— Savage Chevez (@ChevezBoii7) July 2, 2018Whatever happens I just hope Brazil doesn’t win the World Cup— tecatito (@samuel_1039) July 2, 2018Remember when Spain won the World Cup by winning 1-0 in almost every game?
