Brazil fought for their first-place spot against Oman, with the defending champions relentlessly hunting down their opponents.
They earned an early set piece when Edson Hulk was brought down, and from the resulting opportunity Hulk smashed a low shot into the bottom corner to make it 1-0.
Not long after Brazil showed off their acrobatic ability through a second goal scored through a bicycle kick by Rodrigo.
