Paulinho added the second goal for Brazil in the 48th, deftly controlling a cross from Dani Alves before turning inside and shooting. Jo scored in the third minute of stoppage time to seal the victory.

The win puts Brazil at the top of Group A with three points. Italy and Mexico will play in the other group match on Sunday.
