The early goal of the tournament contender didn’t quite reach the top of the list (partially because the Brazilian striker one-upped himself.) Few teams have a flair for the acrobatic quite like Brazil, and Richarlison made that clear with this wonder-goal in the team’s opener. It’s debatable whether or not he actually meant to pop the first touch into the air, but what he did after is undeniably great. And the celebration was typically Brazilian, which is to say it was audacious in its own right.
