Rodrygo's Goal Powers Brazil To Narrow Win Over Ecuador In World Cup Qualifiers

South American World Cup: Real Madrid forward Rodrygo's first-half goal powered Brazil to a narrow 1-0 win over Ecuador in the South American World Cup qualifiers on Friday (local time).

Five-time World Cup winners registered their first win after three consecutive losses in the qualifiers. With 10 points, Brazil have moved to fourth place in the standings, eight points behind leaders Argentina and only two points ahead of sixth-placed Ecuador. The top six teams will advance to the 2026 World Cup.

In their first match since losing to Uruguay in the Copa America quarter-finals, Brazil had another disappointing game. Although they dominated possession, they struggled to create clear chances and seemed out of ideas on how to break down Ecuador’s solid defense.
