Brazil came from behind to defeat Japan 2-1 on Monday, securing a place in the Round of 16 of the FIFA World Cup after a hard-fought Round of 32 encounter.

Japan stunned the five-time world champions by taking the lead in the first half, putting Brazil under pressure heading into the break.

Brazil responded strongly after halftime and equalized in the 56th minute when midfielder Casemiro powered home a header to level the score.

As the match appeared destined for extra time, Brazil found a dramatic winner in stoppage time. Gabriel Martinelli scored in the 90+5th minute, completing the comeback and sending Carlo Ancelotti's side into the next round.

The victory keeps Brazil's World Cup campaign alive after the team advanced from the group stage unbeaten. Japan, meanwhile, exits the tournament despite another disciplined and competitive performance against one of football's traditional powers.

Brazil will now face the winner of the Ivory Coast vs. Norway Round of 32 match for a place in the quarterfinals.
