Vinicius recorded two goals on eight shots (five on target) to go along with two chances created in Wednesday's 3-0 win over Scotland.
Analysis:
Vinicius joined a great piece of history Wednesday, as he would become the first Brazilian player since Ronaldo and Rivaldo in 2002 to score in three straight group stage games. He would end up earning a brace against Scotland, scoring the opener in the seventh minute before another goal in stoppage time of the first half. He would nearly earn a hat trick, although a goal was called back for an earlier foul. He now sits joint-second for the World Cup Golden Boot, only trailing Messi's five.
