Liverpool forward Philippe Coutinho netted his first international hat-trick as Brazil hammered Haiti 7-1 in the Copa America on Thursday.

The 23-year-old opened the scoring with a powerful drive from the edge of the area before making it two courtesy of a tap-in after Jonas squared the ball.

And he completed his treble in the 92nd minute by curling beautifully into the far corner to send Dunga's side top of Group B.

The Selecao wrap up their group-stage campaign against Peru in New Jersey on Sunday.

Speaking of that game, Coutinho said: "We have to keep our focus for the next game.

"We have to be dreaming about big things, but we also have to prepare well for the next game. Peru is a very strong team."

Coutinho will return to action with Liverpool against Chelsea at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California on July 27, click here to buy tickets.
