Brazil vs South Africa Live Score and commentary, Rio Olympics 2016 football

That's it for us tonight - Thanks for joining us, and head over to the Mexico-Germany live blog on our website.

FT: Brazil 0-0 South Africa : This was NOT in the script. Boos ring out in the stadium at full time, as a disappointing Brazil are unable to break down 10 man South Africa in their opening game of the 2016 Rio Olympics.

90+5' Neymar cuts inside and shoots, but his low effort is right at Khune. The crowd groans in agony.

90+4' Mathoho with an excellent block from Neymar's cross. He's been fantastic tonight.

90+3' An excellent dummy from Neymar allows Zeca to collect the ball unmarked at the far post, but a poor first touch sees the move break down. South Africa eventually hack the ball clear. Can they hold on?

90+2' The crowd are heavily booing as Khune is down and claiming to have an injury, but the referee does not buy it.

90' 4 minutes of injury time - Neymar and Mobara with some words between them as South Africa face up to a free-kick.

90' Keegan Dolly almost singlehandedly sets off on a counter, but watches his ball forward incorrectly laid off.

89' Neymar and Luan attempt a 1-2 on the edge of the box, but Mathoho clears for South Africa.

87' South Africa almost fashion a couple of chances on the counter - with Dolly heavily involved. Brazil are back attacking though.

85' CHANCE! Neymar with a lovely inswinging cross to the far post almost finds Jesus, only for Coatzee to clear. Jesus screams in frustration.

84' Douglas Santos comes off for William

81' A quick throw catches out the South African defence, with Gabriel Jesus's poor touch allowing Coatzee to clear for a corner. Khune collects the ball from the subsequent set-piece but goes down injured after his head clatters against Maia's. The game is stopped as he receives his treatment.

78' Great defending! Mobara with a last ditch tackle denies Luan from scoring after a brilliant backheel from Neymar sent him clear in the box.

77' CLOSE! A long ball nearly finds Jesus, but Khune comes out to clear. The move ends with Gabigol's overhead kick being saved comfortably by Khune.

75' Neymar with a lovely dummied reverse pass to Gabigol, and his low shot is saved by Khune, with Gabriel Jesus heading the rebound over. South Africa living dangerously here

73' Maia goes into the book for a cynical foul. South Africa are unable to make anything of their set-piece, with Brazil wasting their counter-attack as well.

72' WHAT A STRIKEE!!! Just as I was denigrating his motivation, Neymar cuts inside on his right foot and unleashes a swerving effort from range that narrowly evades the top corner.

71' CHANCE! Gabigol with a volley from a left-wing cross, sends it over from the box. That's two of Brazil's best prospects missing gilt-edged chances, while their talisman looks well off the pace.

69' HOW DID HE MISS?!!! Neymar starts of the play with the ball from Luan rolled across the box to Gabriel Jesus with Khune stranded. Facing an open goal, the 27 million pound Manchester City signing manages to hit the post!

67' Renato Augusto comes off for Rafinha - a bit of a mixed reception from the crowd. Meanwhile, RSA midfielder Motuba receives some treatment for an injury.

If #RSA can get a least a draw here then that’ll be a brilliant first step in this competition, especially with 10 men. #Rio2016

65' SHOT! After a spell of unrelenting Brazilian pressure, Zeca lets fly from about 25 yards out, but Khune makes the save. The two banks of four look fairly organized, as South Africa mounts a rearguard action.

62' This is quite a dilemma for South Africa coach Owen de Game, as just moments before Mvala was sent off, he had substituted in a centre-forward, Morris.

59' RED CARD!! Mvala is off for a second yellow. That looked harsh, as he stood his ground while shielding Zeca from the ball. Brazil can sense a chance, as Felipe Anderson comes off for Luan.

58' Masuku with some quick feet gets clear of his marker on the wing, before he is clipped, earning his side a foul. That is his last contribution to the game, as Morris comes on in his place.

56' Neymar is down and in pain, after a physical challenge from Mvala on the centre circle earns him the first booking of the game.

54' CHANCE! Dolly plays in an early cross from the left and he finds Mothiba in the box, but as he is backpedalling he is unable to put any power on his header. Brazil should be really careful here...

52' This is a fairly end-to-end encounter as South Africa play the ball in midfield with ease, with Masuku almost fashioning a chance. As Brazil counter, Santos sends in a tempting cross from the left to the far post, before Coatzee makes an acrobatic clearance to deny what would have been a sure goal.

51' SHOT! Gabigol cuts inside from the right wing on his left foot and curls the ball to the top corner, only to find Khune is well-positioned and he collects with ease.

49' WHAT A CHANCE! Keegan Dolly plays a 1-2 on the edge of the box before shooting at goal from a narrow angle. Weverton gets a hand too it, as the ball flashes narrowly past the far post.

48' A heavy tackle on Neymar as he tries to get away on the wing. He's been excellently shackled.

46' A misplaced pass in midfield allows Brazil to profit, with Neymar trying to get past his marker on the left, but his foot got caught in the turf as he shot. South Africa heave a sigh of relief.

46' PEEP PEEP PEEP! South Africa get us underway in the second half!

The teams have exited their dressing rooms, and make their way onto the pitch. Kickoff is moments away!

HT: Brazil 0-0 South Africa : The Selecao ended the half on a high, but were looking rather sheepish in the opening minutes, as South Africa nearly scored. Neymar had a couple of efforts saved, but it's been a fairly entertaining and even first half in the Group A encounter of the 2016 Rio Olympics.

44' Anderson releases Zeca on the right wing, and the right-back sends in a peach of a cross that narrowly evades Neymar's head. As South Africa clear, the move eventually ends with Anderson's long range effort that goes well over. Brazil are ending the half on a high.

42' Motupa lunges in with both feet to tackle Gabigol, and is pulled up for a foul despite getting the ball.

40' WHAT A SAVE! Douglas with a lovely cross from the left finds Neymar in the box, and he hammers a shot that looks destined to ripple the net, only for Khune to stretch out a powerful hand and make a save!

39' South Africa look increasingly ragged at the back, as Brazil turn up the pressure though Gabigol and Neymar. Moments later, Felipe Anderson has a shot from range that barely troubles Khune

36' ALMOST! Felipe Anderson with a low drive from range that nearly curls into the South African net, but bounces inches away from the post.

35' SHOT! Keegan Dolly has the goalkeeper scrambling across goal with a low, left-footed drive that looked set for the bottom corner.

32' The game has come alive! A long ball to Jesus has Khune coming out to clear, but he is left stranded as Brazil recover and sends in a low drive into the box, but Mathoho clears for South Africa

31' CLOSE! Weverton comes off his line but Mothiba is first to the ball, but watches in agony as his headed effort goes over.

30' CHANCE! Neymar with a free-kick delivery from the left wing finds Marquinhos in the box, but the flag is up for offside. As South Africa swiftly counter, Masuku has earned them a corner.

29' SHOT! Neymar with a wonderful dipping, swerving effort from range after cutting inside from the left wing on his right foot - it looks set for the top corner, before Khune makes the save.

28' WAS THAT A PENALTY? Gabriel Jesus slips in the box as the crowd screams for a penalty. Moments later, Weverton nearly gifts a goal by dropping a cross but he collects it eventually.

26' WHAT A CHANCE! It wouldn't have counted due to the flag being raised for offside, but some great play in midfield for South Africa results in a snapshot from Masuku on the edge of the box that goes wide.

23' Midway through the first half, and it is clear that Brazil have a fight on their hands tonight. South Africa have looked very impressive so far.
