Brazil is off to a good start in the Copa América as Marquinhos opened up the scoring for the Seleção.
In a tight fixture against Venezuela, Brazil was able to earn a penalty kick after a foul inside the box. Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar Jr. took to the penalty kick opportunity.
The 29-year-old beat Joel Graterol to score Brazil’s second goal, and they now have a 2-0 lead over Venezuela and look prime to secure all three points for their squad.
