2016 SUMMER OLYMPICS More results from Day 13 in Rio

MENS SOCCER

Brazil wins gold after penalty shootout

Brazil’s trophy case is finally complete.

The five-time World Cup champion won the only championship it was still missing on Saturday, defeating Germany 5-4 in a penalty shootout and winning a soccer gold medal for the first time.

Neymar scored with a superb free kick in regulation and converted the decisive penalty in the shootout after Brazilian goalkeeper Weverton stopped Nils Petersen’s shot.

It was the crowning achievement of the 2016 Olympics for Brazil, restoring some of the nation’s soccer pride after a series of disappointing results. Neymar fell to the field sobbing after he was mobbed by his teammates as the crowd at iconic Maracana Stadium roared.

The victory avenges the embarrassing 7-1 home loss to Germany’s senior team in the World Cup semifinals two years ago. Brazil was also coming off a demoralizing elimination in the group stage of this year’s Copa America.

Germany, playing with a young team that looked nothing like the World Cup-winning squad, made it hard for Brazil, hitting crossbar three times in the first half and sending the game into extra time after a 59th minute equalizer by captain Maximilian Meyer.

PENTATHLON

Lesun redeems himself with a gold medal

Aleksander Lesun had four years to get over his disappointment in London, four years to prepare for his next opportunity.

When it came, he was ready.

No missed shots. No missed medals. Only gold.

Calm and collected on a stage he had once failed on before, Lesun captured gold in men’s modern pentathlon at the Rio de Janeiro Games on Saturday for his first Olympic medal.

Pavlo Tymoschenko of Ukraine earned silver and Ismael Hernandez Uscanga bronze for Mexico’s first modern pentathlon medal.

BOXING

Ramirez edges Stevenson for gold

Robeisy Ramirez and Shakur Stevenson are two of the top talents in the entire Olympic boxing tournament, and their bantamweight championship bout produced three rounds of tantalizing action.

When Ramirez’s hand was raised afterward, Cuba had another two-time gold medalist.

Stevenson left the ring in uncontrollable tears, but also with a silver medal and a bottomless source of motivation for his upcoming pro career.

Ramirez claimed a split decision over the American bantamweight Saturday, celebrating with a standing backflip in the ring after a remarkable run in Rio de Janeiro.

RHYTHMIC GYMNASTICS

Dropped club leads to Mamun’s victory

Russia’s dominance in rhythmic gymnastics remains as strong as ever. Yana Kudryavtseva’s dominance of the sport’s big-time meets, however, is over.

Margarita Mamun ended her Russian teammate’s long run in major international competition during the Olympic all-around final on Saturday, taking advantage when a rare mistake by Kudryavtseva gave Mamun enough room to squeak by and wrest the gold from the three-time world champion. Mamun’s total of 76.483 gave Russia its fifth straight Olympic gold in the rhythmic all-around and Mamun her first major title after spending most of the last three years as the runner-up to Kudryavtseva.

Mamun posted the top score during qualifying on Friday. The scores reset on Saturday and Kudryavtseva led through two rotations when she ran into trouble during her club routine, the event in which she posted the highest score in the 24-woman qualifying field a day earlier.

The 18-year-old tossed one of her two clubs high into the air inside Rio Olympic Arena as the music crescendoed to a finish. One problem: when Kudryavtseva reached out to grab the club, it wasn’t there. Instead it bounced off the floor inches away from her outstretched hand. She left the podium fighting back tears, well aware gold had been lost.
