Neymar leads Brazil to victory

- AFP

– Neymar scored twice as Brazil defeated Turkey 4- 0 in a friendly internatio­nal last night as coach Dunga celebrated a fifth successive win since taking the hotseat following his country’s traumatic World Cup.

Neymar opened the scoring after 19 minutes when he picked up a cross from Fernandinh­o.

The second goal was an own goal by defender Suat Kaya, and Willian scored the third before Neymar rounded off the scoring.

Brazil close their internatio­nal calendar for 2014 next Tuesday with a friendly against Austria. –
