Brazil topped Group C with a 3-0 victory over Scotland in Miami on June 24. Vinicius Jr. scored in the 15th and 52nd minutes, while Manchester United's Matheus Cunha added a third in the 60th. Brazil finished on seven points, ahead of Morocco on goal difference.

Scotland finished third with three points from three matches, winning only their opening fixture 1-0 against Haiti. Napoli midfielder Scott McTominay featured throughout, with his 60th-minute header representing Scotland's first shot on target in over 200 minutes of tournament play.

Scotland's advancement to the round of 32 depends on their three-point tally and -3 goal difference comparing favorably against the best third-place finishers from the nine remaining group stages. Carlo Ancelotti introduced Neymar as a substitute in the second half, the veteran's first appearance at the 2026 World Cup.
