Brazil beat Belgium 1-0
Brazil opened their Olympic campaign with a win against a nine-man Belgium team.Hernanes scored the only goal with a beautifully excecuted strike at the 79th minute just after Belgium captain Vincent Kompany had been sent off by Saudi Arabian referee Khalid Al Ghamdi for a second yellow card.
Midfielder Marouane Fellaini was also sent off after a foul with minimal contact near the end of the match. He complained to the fourth official and had to be ushered of the pitch by team-mates.
It was evident after the first half that Brazil need much improvement if they want to take home the gold medal. With both Ronaldinho and Pato in the team, the Brazilians struggled and were not able to create many chances. In the second half both Ronaldinho and Pato stepped up a notch with Pato curling a shot wide and then nearly forcing the ball home after excellent work down the left by his new teammate Ronaldinho.
