Brazil beat world champions Italy in a thrilling encounter at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium last night.ROBINHO, The Manchester City man, set up the first for club-mate Elano before doubling Brazil's lead in the 27th minute. At the other end, Brazil goalkeeper Julio Cesar was in stunning form to snuff out any Italian threat.

Dunga's men began to get into their stride, however, and took the lead in the 13th minute. Elano backheeled the ball to Robinho, who instantly returned it for his City team-mate to muscle his way past several Azzurri defenders before unleashing a shot into the bottom-right corner.

Brazil then doubled their lead on a swift counter-attack. Robinho stole the ball off Andrea Pirlo before dribbling his way past three players and firing into the far-right corner.
