Brazil beat Wales 2-0 for second win, clean sheet on tour
LONDON, Sep 5 (Reuters) Teenage left back Marcelo marked his international debut with the opening goal as Brazil completed a successful London tour with a 2-0 win over Wales in a friendly at White Hart Lane today.
Brazil, almost entirely changed from the team that beat arch-rivals Argentina 3-0 across north London at the Emirates Stadium two days ago, went ahead on the hour.
The 18-year-old Marcelo took a square ball from Kaka near the edge of the box to the left and his low shot flew past diving keeper Paul Jones into the far bottom corner.
Striker Vagner Love increased Brazil's lead in the 73rd when he headed home substitute defender Cicinho's cross from the right into the far top corner over Jones.
Brazil's starting lineup included Kaka, a substitute on Sunday when he scored a fine solo goal, and Ronaldinho, who had been unavailable through injury against Argentina.
