2014 WORLD CUP - DAY 06 - GROUP A - Brazil vs Mexico 0:0

GROUP A

Brazil vs Mexico 0:0

 

SQUADS:
MEXICO BRAZIL  

 

Brazil were held to a 0:0 draw by Mexico in an exciting match. It's the second goalless draw of this tournament.

Having won their opening fixtures last week, both sides came into the clash knowing a win would all but assure them of a place in the second round.

Mexico goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa made a superb save in each half, scooping Neymar's header away following a pinpoint Dani Alves cross in the first period before being in the right place to keep out Thiago Silva's free header five yards out with just three minutes remaining.

Brazil dominated the latter stages, but ultimately Luiz Felipe Scolari's side failed to deliver the goal the home crowd so desperately craved, and the stalemate leaves the two teams locked on four points at the top of the Group A.
