Neymar nets four as Brazil beat Japan

Brazilian forward Neymar scored all four goals in his country’s 4-0 win over Japan on Tuesday.

New Brazil boss Dunga had guided his country to a three-match winning streak after their dismal World Cup elimination and the friendly against Japan turned out to be no different as Barcelona forward Neymar scored all four goals.

The game started with Brazil on the front-foot and Neymar was nearly on the scoresheet early on as his free-kick cannoned back off the post.

However, the youngster wasted little time in scoring as he linked well with Diego Tardelli to score his first and moments later his second thanks to a delightful through ball from Philippe Coutinho.

Japan were unable to stop the former Santos star as he added two more late on the friendly win to take his tally to 40 for his country at just the age of 22.
