CAIRO: Brazil in semifinals at U20 World Cup, Brazil beat Germany 2-1 to reach the semifinals of the Under-20 World Cup on Saturday, with substitute Maicon coming off the bench to score both goals.
Lewis Holtby put Germany ahead in the 73rd minute, but with two minutes remaining Maicon exploited a gap in the German defense and beat goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler at his near post.
A mix up among Germany’s defenders in the first minute of injury time allowed Maicon space and he expertly lobbed Zieler.
Brazil will play either Costa Rica or the United Arab Emirates in the semifinal. They play later Saturday.
