The five-time world champion crush the Underdog United States 3-2

Panama Star The five-time world champions came from behind to crush the underdog United States 3-2 at Ellis Park on Sunday for their seventh win in 20 days -- five at the tournament and two World Cup qualifiers. They looked out for the count after Clint Dempsey and Landon Donovan put the Americans two up at half-time but bounced back with a Luis Fabiano brace drawing them level with 16 minutes left.

It set the scene for an exciting finale and captain Lucio made it a memorable day with a powerful header from an Elano corner with six minutes remaining. Brazil are not yet certain of being at the 2010 World Cup.
