Brazil have advanced to the final of the men's football tournament after demolishing Honduras 6-0 in the Maracana Stadium on Wednesday morning.

The men's team have gone one better than the women's team who were defeated by Sweden via a penalty shootout on Thursday, and it took them just 14 seconds to gain the lead in their semi-final match.

Barcelona superstar Neymar pounced on a mistake to get the ball over the line despite injuring himself in the process, and the goal is a new Olympic record for quickest goal scored.

Sloppy stuff, but they all count.

Brazil would soon turn on the style with two goals from new Man City signings Gabriel Jesus, Marquinhos, and Luan before Neymar finished off proceedings by adding the sixth.

Brazil will face the winner of the semi-final bewteen Germany and Nigeria which takes place later tonight.
