Brazil Demolishes Costa Rica At U20 World
Cup
(AP) - Alan Kardec scored twice Sunday to
help Brazil beat Costa Rica 5-0 at the
under-20 World Cup. The Brazilians
comfortably outplayed the Costa Ricans for
most of the Group E match, and were three
goals up at the break.
Kardec headed in a corner kick in the 24th
minute, and Guiliano delivered an expert lob
over Costa Rica goalkeeper Esteban Alvarado
to make it 2-0.
Kardec got his second in the 44th, lunging
to meet a loose ball in the goalmouth
following a Guiliano free kick.
Alex Teixeira tapped in the ball for 4-0 in
the 75th, after Douglas slipped through the
Costa Rican defense and struck the post with
his shot.
Substitute Boquita completed the rout with a
blistering shot past Alvarado in the 89th. |
