Brazil in final

Published July 25, 2003

MIAMI, July 24: Brazil came from behind to defeat the United States 2-1 in a CONCACAF Gold Cup semifinal on Wednesday, with Diego scoring a golden goal penalty to take the South Americans into the final.

The goal capped a stirring fightback for the Brazilians who dominated most of the match, but fell behind in the 62nd minute when Carlos Bocanegra headed in a Claudio Reyna free kick to give the US a surprise 1-0 lead.

However, the Brazilians were finally rewarded a minute from time when Kaka beat Keller from eight metres.—Reuters
