Brazil’s next Brazil game is set for this weekend after a sixth-minute stoppage-time goal beat Japan and sent Brazil into the round of 16 at the 2026 World Cup. Japan led 1-0 into the second half, but Brazil scored twice after halftime and finished the comeback late.
Brazil Ends It Late
The go-ahead goal arrived in the sixth minute of stoppage time, turning a 1-0 deficit into a direct path out of the group. Brazil had already found the net twice after halftime before the late winner decided the match against Japan.
That sequence matters because Brazil did not need a clean start to stay alive. Japan carried the lead into the break, then Brazil kept pushing until the final minutes produced the result that eliminated Japan at the 2026 World Cup.
Ivory Coast or Norway
Brazil’s next opponent will be the winner of Tuesday’s match between Ivory Coast and Norway. Ivory Coast is known for defense, while Norway brings one of the best goal scorers in the world in Erling Haaland, so Brazil’s path changes depending on which team comes through.
The round of 16 match is just outside New York City, and the cheapest tickets for Brazil’s next World Cup match start at $1,563. The cheapest lower-level ticket costs $2.104, giving fans a clear price floor for a game that is now one round deeper into the tournament.
