Confederations Cup - Brazil win Confederations Cup,A stunning second-half comeback from Brazil gave them a 3-2 victory in the Confederations Cup final against a brave USA side in Johannesburg.
USA raced into a two-goal first-half lead to stun Brazil, with goals courtesy of Clint Dempsey after 10 minutes of play, and Landon Donavon in the 27th minute to capitalise on some slack defending from their opponents.

The second half was one-way traffic, with Brazil pouring pressure on their opponents with unrelenting waves of attacks, and Dunga's side got their rewards at the Ellis Park Stadium.

A clinical finish from Luis Fabiano in the first minute of the second half gave his side the momentum they needed, and although a Kaka headed goal was cruelly adjudged to have not crossed the line, Brazil continued to press.

Fabiano scored a rebound from Robinho's shot which struck the crossbar in the 74th minute, before a Lucio header from an Elano corner gave Brazil a sensational victory.
