    39'
    MUCH BETTER FROM SERBIA
    They are still waiting for an opening, patiently stroking the ball around Brazil.
    36'
    SERBIA ON THE BALL
    Serbia are enjoying a nice spell on the ball, they fashioned a chance for Mladenovic which was put wide but Serbia are back on the ball looking for another opening.
    34'
    BIG CHANCE!
    Great incisive football from Brazil leads to a shot from Raphinha but it's too tame and is easily saved.
    32'
    LACK OF RHYTHM
    Brazil have been unable to find a real rhythm on the ball as of yet, Serbia are doing very well to disrupt their flow.
    29'
    CHANCE FOR BRAZIL!
    Casemiro fires a terrific pass to Raphinha on the right who heads it back across goal, it's cleared by Serbia for a corner.
    27'
    CHANCE!
    Superb goalkeeping from Vanja Milinkovic-Savic. Silva plays a great pass into Vinicius Junior but the Serbia keeper is out like a flash to win it and then make a clearance.
    25'
    CATCH
    A cross is aimed at Mitrovic in the box but Alisson is strong and confident and claims it.
    23'
    SLOPPY
    Serbia are winning the ball back frequently and in good areas but are giving it straight back with some cheap passes.
    21'
    CHANCE!
    Casemiro registers Brazil's first effort on goal, he belts one from distance but it's easy for Milinkovic-Savic to collect.
    20'
    ENJOYING THE BALL
    Brazil are now enjoying a good spell of possession as they try to break down Serbia's tough defence.
    19'
    WALKING IT OFF
    Neymar has taken a knock to the ankle but looks to be moving ok.
    17'
    SERBIA HOLDING FIRM
    Serbia are more than holding their own, the possession has been pretty even and Brazil are yet to register a shot on target.
    13'
    CHEEKY!
    Neymar has a shot directly from a corner but it's punched out for another corner by Milinkovic-Savic.
    12'
    ELECTRIC
    Vinicius Junior goes through the gears, sprinting past two Serbia defenders before winning a corner. Blistering pace.
    10'
    NEARLY!

    Neymar collects the ball in the box and tries to wriggle past one too many and it's cleared. He is all over the pitch so far, popping up in different positions, his position tonight is the definition of a free role.
    9'
    JOY DOWN THE RIGHT
    Brazil are having plenty of joy down the right hand side through Raphinha who is getting on the ball and sprinting at the opposing wing-back.
    8'
    IN NO RUSH
    Serbia are trying to take the sting out of Brazil already, opting to take their time with a goal kick. With these Brazil attackers swarming on them constantly, I don't blame them for slowing the game down!

    YELLOW CARD - SERBIA
    Pavlovic is shown a yellow card early here for Serbia after a robust challenge on Neymar. He is walking on egg shells now for the remainder of this one.

    FIRST BREAK
    Raphinha does well to get down the right hand side before playing in a cross. It comes to nothing but it's a sign of just how quickly Brazil can get up the pitch.
    2'
    SERBIA PRESS
    Serbia are looking to press high up the pitch early on here, they have seven players in the Brazil half, trying to stop Brazil from playing out and up the pitch.
