Neymar has been named All Football Man of the Match in Brazil's 2-0 win over Mexico.

Neymar's strike and a late second goal from Roberto Firmino, made also by Neymar, saw a strangely low-key Brazil edge past Mexico 2-0 to book a spot in the World Cup quarter-finals.

The Brazil captain scored a 51-minute goal starting the move off with a beautiful back heel to Willian, who burst around the outside before playing a low cross towards the back post.

And then, the PSG forward took the shot but Ochoa got a boot to the ball. The rebound fell kindly for Firmino, who tapped home a second goal.

Neymar has also completed 2 take-ons and 5 key passes to send Selecao into quarter-finals.
