Peru opened the scoring in the 19th minute. From a long ball by goalkeeper Lasanta, Sandro Del Piero won the race and finished beyond Vitor’s reach. Brazil equalized in the 35th minute. After a scramble in the box, Vinicius Rocha arrived and hit it first time, with a deflection off Sean Gormley helping the ball in. One minute later, the comeback was completed by Riquelme, who received the ball through the middle, cut to his right, and fired a low shot across goal, leaving Lasanta with no chance.

In the second half, in the sixth minute, Eduardo Conceição made a fine play down the left, beat two defenders, and squared it to João Bezerra near the penalty spot, and he tapped it in to extend the lead. In the 13th minute, from a rehearsed corner-kick routine, Conceição floated the ball into the box and Eduardo Pape got a slight touch to score Brazil’s fourth.
