June 22 | Late goals nab wins for Brazil, Switzerland

And then there were 38 games left at the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

Day 9 provided some exhilarating action that started with Brazil’s 2-0 victory against Costa Rica. The Brazilian win was fueled by two stoppage-time goals, one by Philippe Coutinho in the 91st minute and another by Neymar in the 97th minute.

The second Group E game saw a late goal in the 90th minute securing the win for Switzerland, as the Swiss edged out Serbia 2-1. While Costa Rica's loss resulted in their elimination from knockout-round contention, the remaining three teams have an almost-equal chance to qualify.
