RIO DE JANEIRO, June 22 (Xinhua) -- Brazil's President Michel Temer congratulated on Friday the national soccer team for their victory against Costa Rica in the second group match in Russia World Cup.

Brazil won by 2-0 in a dramatic match which was only decided in the final minutes. It was the team's first victory in the tournament. In the first group match, Brazil tied with Switzerland 1-1. Brazil will face Serbia on Wednesday.

The President praised the stamina and determination of the players through his Twitter account.

"Congratulations to the team for their stamina and determination! Forward to the sixth championship," he said on Twitter.
