CLEVELAND, United States, June 6 (Xinhua) -- Bruno Guimaraes and Endrick scored in each half as Brazil stepped up its World Cup preparations with a 2-1 win over Egypt on Saturday.
Newcastle United captain Guimaraes opened the scoring by dispossessing Mohanad Lasheen on the edge of the 18-yard box and calmly slotting his shot into the far corner.
The African side equalized through Mostafa Ziko, who intercepted Marquinhos' errant back pass and swept a low effort past goalkeeper Alisson Becker.
Endrick, who replaced Igor Thiago at halftime, put his side ahead when he latched onto Raphinha's cross with a first-time effort that left Mostafa Shobeir with no chance.
The match was the last chance for both sides to test themselves in match conditions before the World Cup starts in the United States, Mexico and Canada.
Brazil will begin its campaign against Morocco in New Jersey on Saturday, while Egypt's opener will be against Belgium in Seattle on June 15.
