THE BATTALION
Brazil, Italy score
wins in openers
YOKOHAMA, Japan (AP)
— Soccer powerhouses Brazil
and Italy did the expected in
completely divergent manners
at the World Cup. They won
their openers.
It was a struggle for Brazil
in a rugged game. The only
four-time world champion
showed its resolve and creativi
ty in rallying to beat Turkey 2-
1 Monday night (Monday
morning EDT).
Italy, a three-time winner and
one of the strong favorites this
year, eased past Ecuador 2-0.
One North American team,
Mexico, had a profitable day,
edging Croatia 1-0. The other,
the United States, was faced
with growing injury woes.
Brazilian stars Ronaldo and
Rivaldo scored in the second
half against the Turks, who fin
ished a classic game with just
nine players. Until Rivaldo con
nected on a penalty kick in the
87th minute, Turkey played
Brazil on even tenns at Ulsan,
South Korea.
“When you start losing, it’s
always extremely difficult,"
Rivaldo said. “But I had full
confidence in my teammates
that we would be able to turn the
match around, as we did."
Turkey coach Senol Gunes
angrily criticized referee Kim
Young-joo, the first South
Korean to work a World Cup
game.
“We controlled Brazil, but
we couldn’t control the refer
ee,” Gunes said. “It was not a
penalty, he was outside the
area. We didn’t get what we
deserved. There was an injus
tice in the result.”
Hundreds of Turkish fans
fought with supporters of Brazil
in a Berlin street brawl after the
game. The fighting erupted
around a giant TV screen in a
plaza. There were no immediate
reports of injuries.
Italy’s Christian Vieri scored
two first-half goals at Sapporo,
Japan. Vieri, picking up where
he left off in the last World Cup,
used his powerful left foci
redirect a cross from FrancesctJ
Totti in the seventh minute
Exactly 20 minutes later, Vieri!
took control of a long pass are
again beat Ecuador goalkeepel
Jose Cevallos. The striker’s
tial shot was partially blocked
by Cevallos, but the ball kef
moving toward the goal. Vier
unchallenged, gave it anotheil
kick from inches away fa
emphasis.
At France ’98, Vieri also led
Italy’s attack, scoring five goals
in five matches.
Brian Hall of Gilroy, Calif
refereed the game and whistled
37 fouls, handing out four ye
low cards.
