Willian strikes after just 40 seconds to set Brazil on way to simple World Cup 2018 qualifying win

Willian scored after 40 seconds and added a second just before the break as Brazil beat Venezuela 3-1 to pocket their first points in South American qualifiers for the 2018 World Cup. After their 2-0 defeat to Chile last week, Brazil, again without the suspended Neymar, raced out of the blocks at the Castelao in Fortaleza and Willian slotted home between Venezuela goalkeeper Alain Baroja and his near post.
