Brazil, led by coach Marquinhos Xavier, had a devastating first half, opening a 4-0 lead. Bruno was the first to score in the seventh minute, and the team had barely finished celebrating and Pito scored the second for the selection. Then it was João Vitor’s turn to score five minutes from the end of the first half, and there was still time for Daniel to leave his.
After the break, the selection slowed down, and Ecuador took the opportunity to reduce the damage: in the seventh minute, Montaño scored the only goal for the Ecuadorians. At six minutes into the game, Bruno Taffy dropped an indefensible bomb and completed the rout: 5 to 1.
