Miranda fired Brazil in front from close range

It's international break and Tite's team were battling World Cup hosts Russia at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow without star player Neymar, who is still recovering from a toe injury sustained in the Champions League for Paris Saint-Germain.

However, although they had to wait until the 53rd minute, Brazil broke the deadlock against the home side with some quick play.

Willian took a corner quickly and Igor Akinfeev could only palm Thiago Silva's header into the path of Miranda at the far post, who fired the ball into the empty net.
