Peralta double stuns Brazil in men's football final

LONDON A goal in each half by Oribe Peralta helped Mexico to a shock 2-1 victory over tournament favourites Brazil in the men's Olympic football final at Wembley on Saturday.
 Peralto put Mexico ahead after just 29 seconds, taking advantage of a defensive error by Fabio to open the scoring with a firm strike from the edge of the area.
The 28-year-old netted his second of the game on 75 minutes, heading home a Marco Fabian free-kick.  Hulk reduced the deficit in additional time and Oscar even had a chance to equalise for Brazil but headed over to give Mexico its first men's Olympic title and leave the five-time world champions still in search of their first Olympic gold.
Mexico's previous best finish was fourth at Mexico City 1968 while Beijing 2008 bronze medallists Brazil took silver at Los Angeles 1984 and in Seoul four years later.
Poor Brazil...
