Philippe Coutinho gave Brazil a perfect start by scoring a stunning goal in the 20th minute. Steven Zuber scored the equaliser for Switzerland in the 50th minute and snatched a point from one of the tournament favourites.
Earlier, Mexico beat defending champion Germany 1-0 in a group F match in Moscow. Hirving Lozano’s brilliant goal at the 35th minute gave Mexico a 1-0 lead at half-time break. Four time champion Germany came out all guns blazing in the second half but failed to penetrate Mexican defence.
In another Group E match, Serbia defeated Costa Rica by 1-0 at Samara. Serbia’s Aleksandar Kolarov converted a free kick into a goal at 56th minute of the game. Serbia is back at the World Cup for the first time since 2010.
