Neymar's Brazil takes Superclásico de las Américas (2-0) | FC Barcelona
It’s Brazil who were celebrating at the end of the Superclásico de las Américas after the side captained by Neymar beat Argentina 2-0 at the Olympic Stadium, Beijing. A brace of goals from Tardelli, one in each half, did the job for the ‘canarinha’, who were simply more decisive than their South American neighbours over the last few metres. Both Messi and Mascherano played the full match, while Neymar was replaced just before the final whistle.

Leo Messi was clearly disappointed after Argentina were beaten 2-0 by South American rivals Brazil in China. "The game was defined by two mistakes by us in the first goal and the penalty" he said. "If I’d scored, it would have changed the game. We were better early on but couldn’t take advantage of that. They scored with their first clear chance."

However, Rakitic has taken up many of the responsibilities from the 34-year-old this year.
