World and European Champions, Spain finally beaten. Brazil 3-0 Spain

Fred scored twice as hosts Brazil won the Confederations Cup for the third time in a row with a hugely impressive win over favourites Spain in Rio de Janeiro.
The Fluminense striker struck early in each half, the first a scrappy affair and the second a neat curled finish.
Neymar fired home another just before half-time while Spain did not help themselves, with Sergio Ramos missing a penalty before fellow centre back Gerard Pique was sent off.
