Don't forget to tune in for the live commentary of all the 2022 FIFA World Cup games at Sportskeeda. Good night!
Brazil are into the knockout stage as Casemiro's brilliant goal helps them overcome Switzerland in a cagey affair. Vinicius Junior had his goal ruled out offside but the five-time champions get the decisive goal in the second half. They join reigning champions Brazil as just the second team to confirm their spot in the knockout round.
A cagey half in which both teams opted for a defensive approach. Richarlison had a couple of chances to put his side ahead and will be the key man in the second half as well. Switzerland and Sommer did well to keep a clean sheet and if they can just get a goal in, they might just win this.
Before he can steady himself for a shot, Thiago Silva makes a crucial tackle.
Switzerland are winless in their last three meetings against South American (CONMEBOL) opponents in the World Cup.
Switzerland have picked up a couple of win in their last five games at the World Cup, with both the wins coming by a one-goal margin.
Switzerland have won four of their last five games across all competitions, scoring at least a goal in four of these games.
Interestingly, Brazil are winless in their last two meetings against the European team, with one game ending in a 1-1 draw and Switzerland securing a 1-0 win in the other.

Haris Seferovic, Renato Steffen, Ardon Jashari, Christian Fassnacht, Denis Zakaria, Edimilson Fernandes, Fabian Frei, Michel Aebischer, Xherdan Shaqiri, Eray Cömert, Fabian Schär, Gregor Kobel, Jonas Omlin, Philipp Köhn
Brazil (4-3-3): Alisson (GK); Eder Militao, Marquinhos, Thiago Silva, Alex Sandro; Fred, Lucas Paqueta, Casemiro; Raphinha, Richarlison, Vinicius Junior
Switzerland (4-2-3-1): Yann Sommer (GK); Silvan Widmer, Manuel Akanji, Nico Elvedi, Ricardo Rodriguez; Remo Freuler, Granit Xhaka; Fabian Rieder, Djibril Sow, Ruben Vargas; Breel Embolo
Brazil are taking to the pitch without Neymar, who is injured and is ruled out of the group stage. Tite has changed the formation and has fielded a three-man midfield with Fred starting alongside Lucas Paqueta and Casemiro. One change in the defense as well, with Eder Militao replacing Danilo ar right back.
Switzerland also make a major change as Fabian Rieder starts in place of Xherdan Shaqiri, who picked up the assist for Embolo's goal against Cameroon, interesting.
