Vinicius Junior produced a stunning equaliser against Morocco in Brazil's FIFA World Cup 2026 opener, with the spectacular strike leaving fans in awe and American rapper Travis Scott celebrating wildly in the stands.
Vinicius Junior may have just produced the early frontrunner for Goal of the Tournament at the FIFA World Cup 2026. The Brazil star lit up the New York New Jersey Stadium with a sensational equaliser against Morocco, sending not only the Brazilian fans into delirium but also American rapper Travis Scott into a frenzy in the stands.
Brazil found themselves trailing in their Group C opener after Morocco struck first in the 21st minute. However, the five-time world champions responded in style as Vinicius produced a moment of individual brilliance in the 32nd minute to restore parity and inject life into Carlo Ancelotti's side.

The goal quickly went viral across social media, with fans hailing it as one of the standout moments of the tournament so far. Cameras also caught Travis Scott celebrating wildly from the stands as the Real Madrid winger wheeled away in celebration after finding the back of the net.
The strike added another chapter to Vinicius' growing story in Brazilian colours. Playing his 50th international match for the Selecao, the 25-year-old brought up his 10th goal for the national team and his second in FIFA World Cup history.
Interestingly, his first World Cup goal had also come in Brazil's opening scoring sequence during their Round of 16 clash against South Korea at the 2022 tournament in Qatar. Once again, when Brazil needed inspiration, Vinicius delivered.
BRAZIL VS MOROCCO: AS IT HAPPENED
The contest began in lively fashion as Morocco showed exactly why they were one of the surprise packages of the previous World Cup. The Atlas Lions looked confident from the opening whistle and stunned Brazil by taking the lead in the 21st minute.
For a brief period, Carlo Ancelotti's first World Cup match as Brazil coach threatened to become an uncomfortable evening. Morocco remained compact, disciplined and dangerous on the counterattack, frustrating the South Americans whenever they entered the final third.
Then came the moment everyone inside the stadium will remember.
Receiving the ball in a crowded attacking area, Vinicius created just enough space for himself before unleashing a spectacular finish that left the Moroccan defence helpless and the crowd on its feet. The strike immediately changed the momentum of the match and gave Brazil a lifeline heading into the remainder of the contest.
