Brazil edge Spain for fifth Futsal World Cup


Brazil lifted their fifth FIFA Futsal World Cup in dramatic fashion on Sunday night in Bangkok with a 3-2 extra-time victory over familiar final foes Spain. 


Neto scored the 50th-minute winner at the Hua Mak Indoor Stadium to seal Brazil’s third triumph out of four over two-time champions Spain in the championship decider. 

He also picked up the Golden Ball award as player of the tournament, an honour claimed by team-mate Falcao in the previous two editions. 

Eder Lima of Russia collected the Golden Shoe award as top scorer with nine goals.
