FIFA World Cup 2018: Brazil, Swiss fans party after magnificent wins

Two stoppage time goals from Phillipe Coutinho and Neymar were enough for Brazil to beat Costa Rica in a Group E match of the World Cup. The second loss in a row for the Central Americans means they are eliminated form the tournament. The win was Brazil’s first in four World Cup matches and keeps their chances of reaching the knockout rounds in their own hands.
