Brazil denied by Mexico keeper

 

Brazil 0-0 Mexico

Brazil were denied a second win at their home World Cup by the brilliance of goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa who earned Mexico a deserved point.

Neymar was denied twice by Ochoa, who dived at full stretch to push away a header before blocking the number 10's close-range shot.
The keeper also denied David Luiz and produced a great late stop to keep out Thiago Silva's header.
Raul Jimenez forced a good save from Brazil's Julio Cesar in stoppage time.
