Brazil’s Matheus Cunha scores a brace against Haiti, delivering a result that also creates a record in the FIFA World Cup. Multiple reports note that the two goals in the first half mean Cunha joins a select group of Brazilian players who have netted at least two goals in the opening stages of a World Cup match. The feat is described as the 10th time a Brazilian player achieves two or more first-half goals in a World Cup game, which is presented as the highest number for any nation. The coverage frames the accomplishment as both a match contribution and a statistical landmark for Brazil’s World Cup scoring history. No additional details about the broader match events, final score, or tournament context are provided in the excerpts, but the common point across sources is the historical significance of Cunha’s first-half brace.
