Resume.
Brazil thrashed Chile 5-0 Sunday and in doing so ensured that they qualified for the Germany 2006 World Cup finals.
The Brazilian goals came through Juan (11th minute), Robinho (20th minute) and a hat trick for Adriano (26th, 28th, 47th minutes). The team were in awesome form, ripping through the Chile defence at will.
Juan started the scoring, putting Brazil ahead with a header in the 11th minute, sending the ball into the far corner from about 10 feet out after a perfect corner from Kaka.
Robinho continued his fine form adding the second. Starting and finishing the move, he sent a long ball from midfield to Adriano, who dribbled past a defender on the right and crossed the ball to Kaka. The AC Milan midfielder knocked it down in front of the goal where Ronaldo, with his back to the net, left it for Robinho to finish with a blast from 13 feet.
Adriano increased the lead in the 26th with a firm left-footer from just inside the area, firing a low cross shot into the far corner. The Inter Milan striker got on the board again three minutes later with a header from about 20 feet off a corner from midfielder Ze Roberto, then closed the scoring with a powerful left-footer from inside the area two minutes into second-half injury time.
Brazil's only real negatives were the loss of Roberto Carlos in the 65th minute because of a knee injury, but after an initial examination, team doctor Jose Luis Runco said it did not seem to be serious.
Ronaldo, who left the match at halftime, increased his scoreless streak to six matches. The two-time World Cup winner hasn't scored for Brazil since the team's 5-2 win over Venezuela on Oct. 9.
Brazil's victory sends them to Germany as the bookies clear favourites to lift the Jules Rimet trophy for a record 6th time.
Brazil is now second in the table with 30 points, only one behind Argentina -also qualified, with two games left to play.
