Brazil outclassed and outplayed Team Great Britain in their warm up match prior to the 2012 Olympics. Neymar and Sandro scored the goals for their side at the 1rst half of the game.

Ryan Gigg’s squad could only maintain the scoreboard 0-0 up until the 16^th minute when a free kick was launched into the penalty box by Neymar and it arrived into the spot where Sandro was awaiting as the Brazilian headed it into the opposing side of the net.

The next goal arrived 19 minutes later after Hulk was brought down in the penalty box by Micah Richards and it was a more than clear tackle which earned the Manchester City defender a yellow card and a penalty for the Brazilians. It was taken by Neymar as he slammed the ball past the goalkeeper Jason Steele.

A number of substitutions and changes were made for Great Britain as they were hoping it would make a difference in the final outcome of the game but the game continued in the same fashion with Brazil dominating the pitch with the sleek passes and quick bursts to the opposition’s own half until it all came to an end.
