The soccer crazy South American nation of Brazil, finally claimed their first ever Gold medal at The Soccer event of the Olympics in grand style, beating their arch rivals, Germany right inside the Maracana, in front of their Home fans.


The pulsating encounter, which saw the Brazilians take the lead, courtesy of a well curled Neymar freekick 27 mins into the game. The German team leveled scores, nine minutes after the break through Max Meyers effort in the 59th minute.

The game ended 1-1 apiece, and had to stretch into extra time, which also ended in a stalemate. Finally a winner had to be decided via penalty shootout. Brazilian Goalkeeper "Weverton" saved Nil Petersen's spot kick, giving Neymar the opportunity to take the decisive kick, and he did in grand style, sending Timo Horn in goal for Germany the wrong way, and giving BRAZIL her first ever Gold medal in Olympics football history, the only major senior football tournament which the SAMBA boys had failed to win in previous attempts after playing in the finals 3 times. HISTORY has been made today.
