Brazil defeated Chile 4-2 in the first game of South-American Under 20, the tournament that will select two South American National Teams for the next Olympics in Pequim 2008 and four to the U-20 World Cup in Canada.

Alexandre Pato, the 17-year-old wonder boy who played for Internacional in the Fifa Cub World Cup, played just the last 30 minutes because he is recovering from a injury but scored twice.

His first goal, Brazilian third, was a amazing goal. Leandro Lima (#7), from Sao Caetano, scored the two firsts in a come-from-behind victory and Pato (#11) finished the job.
