The Defending Champions Stuns Germany With A 4 - 2 Win!

Defending Olympic champion Brazil defeated Germany on Thursday in what was a rematch of the 2016 Rio men's footballfinal.

Striker Richarlison scored a stunning first-half hat-trick as Brazil beat Germany 4-2 in their opening game of the 2020 Olympic in Japan.

Brazil also got the better of Germany in the fixture five years ago on home soil, winning in a dramatic penalty shootout to claim gold medal.

Thursdays game was played at the International Stadium in Yokohama -- the same venue where Brazil beat Germany in the 2002 World Cup final.

Everton striker Richarlison's hat-trick within the opening 30 minutes had Brazil well on its way to victory again, although second half goals from Nadiem Amiri and Ragnar Ache made it 3-2 and a nervy finish.

However a late goal from Bayer Leverkusen striker Paulinho capped off the victory and gave Brazil a vital opening three points.

Brazil Scored their first against Germany at the 10th min and already reached 3-0 at the first half, Germany fought hard but it didnt go well and the German captain has obtained a red card. At the end of the match, the final result is 4 -2 with Richalison's Hat Trick!
