The 26-year-old Paris Saint-Germain striker, who broke out in tears after scoring his first goal of the tournament in Brazil's 2-0 Costa Rica win, was all smiles after tapping in Willian's powerful cross in the 51st minute.

He then turned provider in the dying minutes to set up a goal for Liverpool midfielder Roberto Firmino, who came on off the bench just minutes earlier.

Brazil, who last failed to make it to the quarter-finals in 1990, will play either Belgium or Japan in the last eight in Kazan on Friday.
