Brazil ease through to Last 8.

Mexico legs were tiring and after Neymar was set free by Fernandinho.
It was his saved shot that fell perfectly as a rebound to Roberto Firmino who tapped home from two yards.
Guillermo Ochoa for Mexico was superb and now is the first goalkeeper to make 20 saves at the 2018 World Cup.
But Second-half goals from Neymar and Roberto Firmino saw Brazil beat Mexico 2-0 to advance to the World Cup last eight in Samara on Tuesday.
