Olympic 2016: Neymar Scores Winning Penalty To Give Brazil Gold

Neymar scored the fifth and final penalty to hand Brazil Olympic Gold after Nils Petersen missed for Germany.

The game began with Neymar bagging a superb free-kick, which curled into the top corner and left Germany goalkeeper Timo Horn with no chance.

With that effort Brazil deservedly led, but in the second half, Max Meyer fired in a superb leveller to bring the Germans back into the game and the two sides could not be separated until penalties.
