KOLKATA, India, ⁠Oct 3 (Reuters) - Samuel Lino scored his first two goals for ⁠Brazil as India's frantic effort to hold off the five-time ‌world champions faded after a spirited start, allowing the visitors to cruise to a 4-0 win in a friendly on Saturday.

Chelsea winger Estevao scored Brazil's first goal ​and assisted Pedro before Lino netted a second-half ⁠brace, helping Carlo Ancelotti's ⁠side conclude their tour of Australia and India with two wins and ⁠a ‌draw.

Ancelotti, who has experimented with the squad throughout the three friendlies, made eight changes from Tuesday's 4-2 win over ⁠Australia, retaining only Vinicius Jr, Danilo and Gabriel Bontempo.

India's ​strategy of leaving ‌Vinicius unmarked on the left and trapping him offside had ⁠some early success ​as they combined their defenders with a low midfield to hold Brazil off, and targeted lone forward Manvir Singh with long balls.

But Estevao delivered ⁠the breakthrough in the 28th minute, cutting ​in from the right to dispatch a left-footer at the near post, before setting up Brazil's second with a defence-splitting pass for Pedro to ⁠finish.

Pedro set up Samuel Lino for the third goal near the hour mark, before the 26-year-old Flamengo winger dribbled past two defenders to make it 4-0 just before fulltime, as the crowd of 51,000 ​at the Salt Lake Stadium cheered the ⁠visitors as vocally as their own country.

India, ranked 138th in the world, ​were left ruing their missed chances as ‌Manvir and Ryan Williams failed to ​net a consolation goal, extending their winless streak to six matches.
