Brazil came flying out of the gates against Ghana in their pre-World Cup friendly with Tottenham striker Richalrison continuing to form a devastating understanding with PSG’s Neymar.
Marquinhos had given Tite’s side an early lead before Neymar combined with the Spurs forward twice in the space of ten-minutes to put Brazil out of sight.
Richarlison opened his account by sweeping home from the edge of the area following Neymar’s penetrative pass before doubling his tally with an empathic near post header from the 30-year-old’s free-kick.
With six goals in his last five appearances for the Seleção, Richarlison is staking a strong claim to be part of the World Cup squad travelling to Qatar.
The number nine is on his back as he channels the spirit of another famous R9, supported by Neymar hitting his stride at the perfect time.
