Hernanes added to the lead with a left-footed attempt from inside the area in the 85th, and Paris Saint-Germains Lucas sealed the victory by converting a penalty kick in injury time. The result ended Brazils 21-year winless run against France, and gave the "Selecao" its first victory over a former World Cup champion in nearly four years. A two-time defending champion in the Confederations Cup, Brazil will play Japan in the tournaments opener next Saturday in the capital of Brasilia. Brazil hasnt won a significant title since the 2009 Confederations Cup. "Its good to finally beat a top team, but more importantly, its good to be playing well again," Oscar said. "Hopefully we will be able to get off to a great start at the Confederations Cup as well." The Brazilians hadnt beaten France since a 2-0 win in a 1992 friendly in Paris. In the six matches since, the teams drew twice and France won four times, including the final of the 1998 World Cup and in the quarterfinals of the 2006 World Cup. Led by Karim Benzema but without many of its top players, France was coming off three losses in four matches this year: to Spain in World Cup qualifying, and to Germany and Uruguay in friendlies. Its only win was against Georgia. The French are second to Spain in its World Cup qualifying group. "We didnt have a lot of opportunities, but we had enough to get a better result," France coach Didier Deschamps said, through a translator. "Its the end of the season and that made things a bit more difficult for us. Facing Brazil here gave us a good chance to show our football." Sundays result marked Brazils first win over a former World Cup champion since 2009. The last victory came against England in a friendly in Doha. Brazil has since failed to beat teams such as Argentina, Portugal, England and the Netherlands. The Brazilians beat Argentina in 2011 and last year, but the teams were using players from local clubs. Brazil struggled during most of Sundays match in front of more than 50,000 at the Gremio Arena in the southern city of Porto Alegre, allowing France to create dangerous scoring opportunities from the beginning. The Confederations Cup hosts improved a bit in the second half and controlled possession after Oscar got them on the board. Oscars goal came after Fred gained possession near midfield and made a run through the left side before passing the ball to the Chelsea midfielder. Oscar easily found the net as the goalkeeper charged toward him. Hernanes came on as a substitute and scored the second goal after a breakaway. Neymar set him up with a one-touch pass inside the area, and the Lazio midfielder fired a left-footed shot that struck the post before going in. Substitute midfielder Lucas scored after Real Madrid left back Marcelo was fouled inside the area. "It was an important victory to give us more composure as we continue on our path to try to win the Confederations Cup," Hernanes said. Since Luiz Felipe Scolari returned to the national team in December, Brazil had previously won only won one of six matches, against Bolivia. The coach who led Brazil to the 2002 World Cup title couldnt manage more than draws against Italy, Russia and Chile. Brazil lost 2-1 to England in the coachs debut. But Brazil was coming off a 2-2 draw with England at the new Maracana a week ago. Scolari made only one change to the starting lineup since last Sunday, replacing left back Filipe Luis with Marcelo.

A lawyer for MLB, Matthew Menchel, confirmed Wednesday the league dropped its case against Biogenesis of America, its owner Anthony Bosch and several other individuals. The lawsuit had accused Biogenesis and Bosch of conspiring with players to violate their contracts by providing them with banned performance-enhancing substances. The USA selection panel headed by Ricardo Powell has narrowed down its initial 30-man squad from July down to 22 for a final five-day national-team camp from September 17 to 21 in Indianapolis, which will be used to pick a 14-man squad for USAs Auty Cup series against Canada in mid-October followed by World Cricket League Division Four in Los Angeles from October 29 to November 5.According to multiple sources, only 20 players were originally invited to Indianapolis, but an opportunity was given to players participating in tour matches against the MCC in New York last weekend to earn a last-chance opportunity in front of new USA coach Pubudu Dassanayake. Two players did enough to get a late call - offspinner Muhammad Ghous and batsman Abdullah Syed.Ghous was named captain for last summers squad that competed at the World T20 Qualifier in Ireland and is one of USAs most experienced players - he has taken 30 wickets in 39 T20s and 35 wickets in 32 50-over games for USA - but his spot has increasingly come under threat due to recent sub-par performances. He chose not to bowl his full quota of four overs in three of USAs six games at the World T20 Qualifier in Ireland, and finished with four wickets, tied for third on the team.Ghous beat the CPL-contracted offspinner Nikhil Dutta for a spot in a combined ICC Americas team that played in the WICB Nagico Super50 in January, but played in just two games and was ineffective with combined figures of 0 for 53 in 7.5 overs. However, in the first of the two 50-over MCC tour matches played at Baisley Pond Park in New York on Saturday, Ghous took 3 for 20 in 10 overs with three maidens. It was enough to convince Dassanayake andd national selector Barney Jones, who was also present in New York, that Ghous should still have a chance to compete in Indianapolis to retain his place in USAs squad for Division Four.

Former USA U-19 batsman Randall Wilson, who top-scored against the MCC with 76 off 105 balls while opening the batting alongside Syed on Saturday, was not invited to Indianapolis.According to multiple sources, Wilson was one of several players, including Syed, whom selectors wanted to have a further look at evaluating as a middle-order option on Sundays second match, taking into consideration USAs top-order batsmen - Steven Taylor, Akeem Dodson, Fahad Babar, Alex Amsterdam - are unlikely to change. While Syed seized the opportunity to bat in the middle-order playing against the MCC on Sunday, Wilson chose to play for his local club side Atlantis CC in their league final on Sunday - he made a second-ball duck - rather than suit up once again for the New York XI and thus missed out on an opportunity for a final middle-order audition.In addition to Dassanayake, the camp will also have Trevor Penney serving as guest fielding coach. Penney, who is based in Montreal, Canada, has previously served as fielding coach for numerous international sides, most recently Sri Lanka. He was also Indias fielding coach from 2011 to 2014. ' ' '
