Brazil 7-1 Haiti: Philippe Coutinho scores a hat-trick as Dunga's men run riot in Orlando to get Copa America bid back on track










If anything, this emphatic scoreline should be a reminder for Brazil that all is not well, rather than something to brag and boast about.
Philippe Coutinho scored a brilliant hat-trick as Dunga's side crushed Haiti, tossing them this way and that, like a dog with a chew-toy, but the end result turned out to be a reminder of the most painful night in Brazil's history.
The 7-1 defeat by Germany in the 2014 World Cup semi-final is still fresh in the memory and no matter how savage a beating they dealt Haiti in Orlando, it was, of course, just Haiti they were beating.
