Brazil Dominates Haiti 3-0 in 2026 World Cup Qualifying Match The Brazilian National Team secured a decisive 3-0 victory over Haiti on Friday, June 19th, at Philadelphia Stadium in the United States, continuing their campaign in the second round of Group C of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Brazil opened the scoring in the 23rd minute. Matheus Cunha found the back of the net after a rebound from Haitian goalkeeper Johny Placide following a shot by Vini Jr. The second goal saw Lucas Paquetá steal the ball in midfield and launch Vini Jr., who then passed to Cunha, doubling Brazil's lead. Before halftime, Vini Jr. himself scored the third goal, sprinting past the onrushing goalkeeper. In the second half, Brazil eased the tempo while Haiti pressed forward, creating several scoring opportunities but failing to find a goal. This result eliminates Haiti from contention for the next phase of the competition. This match marks the fourth encounter between Brazil and Haiti, with Brazil winning all games, scoring 17 goals and conceding just one.
