Subsequently, Brazil's offensive waves continued, with players fully energized! In the 58th minute, both Gerson and Igor Jesus had shooting chances, but both were thwarted.

In the 71st minute, Henrique broke through on the right and crossed; Pereira, who had just substituted, seized the chance in the box and scored, extending Brazil's lead to 3-0! In the 74th minute, Henrique curled a left-footed shot from outside the box into the net, making it 4-0! Both substitutes scored immediately after entering, rendering the match beyond doubt!
