Japan beat Brazil for the first time on Tuesday, fighting from two goals down to win the friendly 3-2 in Ajinomoto Stadium in Tokyo. Ayase Ueda grabbed the winning goal with a header in the 71st minute, sending the sell-out crowd into celebration. It was Japan’s historic first win over the South American powerhouse at its 14th attempt. Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti made several changes to the team that won 5-0 in South Korea four days ago, but the five-time world champion continued its strong form from Seoul with a dominant first half in the Japanese capital.
