Brazil beat Zimbabwe 3-0 in Harare in front of thousands of fans witnessing the first visit to the country by a non-African national team since 1980 and they were not disappointed.
Brazil were using the game as a warm-up before the World Cup starting next week, won with goals from Michel Bastos, Robinho and Elano.
Brazil named a very strong side, including Kaka, Maicon and Robinho and looked the business and while it was Zimbabwe and while they are the footballing equivalent of Birmingham City, Brazil never really loeft second gear - the same gear most teams do beat Birmingham City in, but a victory nonetheless.
But, don't take our word for it, you can watch the goals below and we would suggest muting.
