Brazil down Mexico
BOSTON, Sept 13: Brazil struck twice inside the last 10 minutes to record a come-from-behind 3-1 win over Mexico in a friendly on Wednesday.Mexico went ahead in the 43rd minute through Juan Carlos Cacho.
But Brazil drew level two minutes later when Kleber met a Ronaldinho corner at the near post and his shot beat the diving Mexican goal-keeper Guillermo Ochoa.
With 10 minutes left on the clock Kaka put Brazil ahead, slotting home after Mexico
defender Rafael Marquez failed to clear a low cross from
Maicon.
Brazil then had substitute Elano sent off for a wild challenge on Gerardo Torrado but despite being down to 10 men they extended their lead when substitute Afonso raced over the top and confidently fired home.—Reuters
