Brazil beat Israel 4-0 in the fifth and final game of their football tour, in front of a 50,000 crowd in Tel Aviv on June 1. Brazil took the lead after 15 minutes through Romario. Three goals in the second half destroyed Israel and put a successful seal to the Brazilian tour which included victories over Scotland and Finland but which also contained an embarrassing 1-0 defeat at the hands of the Irish Republic. Dunga put Brazil further ahead in the 51st minute before Romario scores his second in the 72nd and Joao Paulo added the fourth in the 81st minute.
