Gabriel Martinelli helped Brazil top their World Cup group on Wednesday night with a 3-0 win over Scotland.
The duo, including Gabriel Magalhaes, became the second set of Arsenal players to top their group after Kai Havertz and Germany.

What happened?

Gabriel Magalhaes started the game, playing every minute of the tournament so far, and helped his team to their second clean sheet in a row.

Gabriel Martinelli came on for the final 24 minutes in his second sub appearance of the tournament.

Why it matters for Gabriel Martinelli

With Morocco winning in the other game against Haiti, Brazil needed the win to top the group.

The win means Gabriel Martinelli and his teammates will progress to the World Cup knockouts.

What comes next?

In total, Arsenal have five internationals confirmed in the World Cup knockouts, with William Saliba of France and Martin Odegaard of Norway also guaranteed to progress.

As it stands, none of Arsenal’s 15 players have been eliminated, and quite a few of the 10 whose fate is unconfirmed are in good positions to reach the next stage.

Spain and England are both extremely likely to progress, which would mean Martin Zubimendi, Mikel Merino, David Raya, Eberechi Eze, Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, and Noni Madueke all making the knockouts.

Only three players have genuine uncertainty around their progression.

Sweden and Viktor Gyokeres remain in a good position despite their 5-1 defeat in the last game.

Any result against Japan would see them through, and even a defeat might be enough as long as they don’t lose by four goals again.

Belgium and Leandro Trossard cannot afford a defeat to New Zealand, and a draw might be risky.

A win would definitely see Belgium through, and you’d expect them to get it.

Ecuador and Piero Hincapie are easily in the worst position of the Arsenal internationals.

They must win in their final game against Germany, with any other result sending them home.

The only potential saving grace is that Germany have already topped the group, and have little to play for.

But if the same team that has racked up a tournament-high nine goals in two games turns up again, Ecuador will be in trouble.
