The Czechs get one more chance after Soucek is fouled by Allan quite a way out. The Czechs keep the pressure on after the free-kick but Jankto can't keep a loose pass in play.
90' +2
There will be five added minutes here due to all those Czech injuries. The crowd are cheering Brazil's every pass now. The home side are surely beaten.
90'
Gabriel Jesus has scored a goal for Brazil!
GOAL! 3-1 BRAZIL! The visitors seal the victory! Jesus grabs his second thanks to some lovely interplay between him, Neres and Allan. His first effort is saved but he taps the ball home on the rebound.
89'
Brazil get a corner off Gebre Selassie. Arthur's low inswinging effort doesn't beat the first man but the Czechs can't keep the ball.
87'
Fabinho enters the game and replaces Roberto Firmino.
Brazil are seeing this one out. Firmino goes off to applause. Fabinho will shore up their midfield.
86'
The Czechs look pooped now. Kral pulls over Jesus as the striker looks to enter the home side's defensive third.
84'
J. Jankto enters the game and replaces J. Zmrhal.
The Czechs respond. Zmrhal off. Jankto on.
That was a good spot by Neres who was well within his rights to shoot himself. He may have given his side the win.
83'
Gabriel Jesus has scored a goal for Brazil! Assist by David Neres.
GOAL! 2-1 BRAZIL! A wonderful Arthur pass leaves Neres in tons of space on the left. The winger astutely rolls the ball across to Jesus who thrashes the ball into the net.
81'
Brazil are ramping up the pressure on the Czechs. Can the visitors come away with the win?
Minute
Description
80'
Brazil get two corners in a row. One stays in the Czechs' area longer than the other but neither threatens Pavlenka's goal.
78'
Neither side is creating very much now. It looks like this is going to fizzle out into a draw at the moment.
76'
The Czechs' number 12 fouls Brazil's number 12 as Masopust fouls Sandro near the halfway line. Sandro finds himself with time to pick out a cross but the Czech defence is alert.
74'
There's a bit of head tennis in midfield. Marquinhos' botched clearance goes out for a throw down the Czechs' right.
72'
Gabriel Jesus enters the game and replaces Philippe Coutinho.
Next, Coutinho is replaced by Jesus. Firmino will drop deeper.
71'
Arthur enters the game and replaces Casemiro.
First, Arthur comes on for Casemiro.
70'
Neres picks up the ball from Sandro and makes his way towards the goalline. Pavlenka is relieved to watch his attempted cross go out for a corner.
Not much comes of Brazil's corner. Brazil are about to make two changes. This is the worst thing about friendlies.
69'
A. Král enters the game and replaces D. Pavelka.
Pavelka, who's had an eventful game, is replaced by the David Luiz lookalike Kral.
67'
Coufal picks Sandro's pocket and the Czechs are on the attack. Pavelka's attempted cross is put out for a throw on the right.
65'
Vydra tries to skip past Silva but ends up on the turf. Everton goes on a dazzling run towards the Czech defence but goes down far too easily in the box. The ref is too embarrassed to book him.
64'
The Czechs are regaining their momentum after that raft of substitutions. Vydra makes Alisson drop low to save his close-range shot but he's offside anyway.
63'
David Neres enters the game and replaces Richarlison.
Now Brazil are making another change. Richarlison off. Neres on.
61'
Make that half-cleared. Sandro picks the ball up from the Czechs' clearance and causes them further problems but this time they manage to get the ball away for good.
60'
This is turning into a farce. Pavelka and Soucek have banged into one another while trying to catch Coutinho on the ball. Thankfully they both look OK.
59'
O. Kúdela enters the game and replaces O. Čelůstka.
Celustka is belatedly replaced by Kudela. What impact will all these enforced changes have on the Czechs?
56'
M. Frýdek enters the game and replaces V. Darida.
The Czechs are understandably taking no risks with Darida. He's replaced by Frydek.
53'
M. Vydra enters the game and replaces P. Schick.
Czechia's boss Jaroslav Silhavy reacts to that goal straight away. Schick is replaced by Vydra.
51'
Gebre Selassie really dropped a clanger there. He had no need to make that backpass when he could just have hooked it clear. Not the best start to the game for him.
49'
Roberto Firmino has scored a goal for Brazil!
GOAL! 1-1 BRAZIL! That was an underwhelming goal. Firmino latches onto a lax backpass by Gebre Selassie who is under pressure from Richarlison and finishes from six yards out. Poor defending by the Czechs.
47'
Everton looks to make an early impact, beating two Czech defenders from the left before his cross is blocked.
46'
T. Gebre Selassie enters the game and replaces F. Novák.
Everton enters the game and replaces Lucas Paquetá.
The Czechs get the second half going. Can they hang on for a famous win?
The home side pick up where they left off. Schick's header bounces wide after he gets on the end of a Masopust cross.
45'
HALF TIME: CZECH REPUBLIC 1-0 BRAZIL
The Czechs make a sub at half-time: Novak is replaced by Gebre Selassie.
43'
Paqueta picks up the ball and lets fly from range - and we mean fly. Brazil need to get their heads together.
41'
The more you look at that Pavelka goal, the better it is - the ball bobbled into his path and he hit it first time. It was a wonderful strike.
40'
The Czechs threaten to make it two. Zmrhal's cutback from the left can't find a team-mate, and Masopust has a shot blocked from Soucek's pass.
38'
Richarlison is booked for a bad foul on Zmrhal. Brazil aren't getting it as easy as they thought they would here.
37'
D. Pavelka has scored a goal for Czechia!
Richarlison gets yellow.
GOAL! 1-0 CZECH REPUBLIC! A deflected pass suddenly gives Pavelka sight of goal just outside Brazil's area. He makes no mistake, burying the ball past Alisson!
35'
Alisson is called into action again, this time grabbing a powerful shot from range from Pavelka. Brazil are being put through their paces here.
33'
Pavelka makes a mess of a free header from Coufal's cross. The midfielder shakes his head ruefully.
31'
Richarlison latches onto a sliding pass down the right but his cross is blocked. Down the other end, Darida's through-ball finds precisely no one.
30'
Masopust takes his time to get off the turf after challenging Paqueta for a header. The Czechs put the ball out and Brazil sportingly return the favour.
27'
Brazil manage to break out and launch an attack of their own. Pavelka pulls down Paqueta. Casemiro will take this free-kick from about 35 yards out.
26'
The Czechs are doing well to pin Brazil into their own defensive third. They can't create a shooting opportunity though.
24'
Casemiro gets yellow.
The Czechs are growing into this. Casemiro concedes another free-kick, further out this time, for fouling Pavelka.
21'
Schick is fouled by Marquinhos 20 yards out. The Czechs put a few men in the Brazil wall. Allan is crouching behind them. Does he know something we don't?
20'
The Czechs win a corner down their right. It's taken quickly but Brazil win a free-kick for some Czech indiscretion in the box.
18'
Marquinhos holds the ball up at the back, looking for a colleague. He finds Danilo and Brazil are away. Sandro gets forward down the left to cross and Allan arrives in the box to flash a header wide.
16'
Coutinho's free-kick is headed away but Brazil have kept possession. Danilo angles a ball forward for Coutinho to chase but the winger is offside.
15'
Richarlison has a shot blocked from far out. Pavelka steams through the back of Allan not long after by the right touchline. Brazil free-kick. Coutinho will take it.
14'
Thiago Silva brings down Darida in a promising position but the Czechs promptly waste the free-kick. It hasn't been a high-quality game so far.
12'
Brazil win a free-kick when Coufal brings down Coutinho by the halfway line. It doesn't lead to much. Richarlison is equally roughhoused by Novak shortly after. The Czechs are no mugs.
10'
The Czechs counter down their left through Zmrhal. The Slavia Prague winger gets the cross into the box but can't find a teammate.
8'
The Czechs are trying to play their way out of their own half but can't get past Brazil's pressing. It's easy to see why the visitors are so high in the world rankings.
6'
Brazil look unhurried. The Czechs win a free-kick when Pavelka is fouled by Allan but promptly give the ball straight back.
4'
Brazil pop the ball around nicely and unsettle the Czechs. Masopust looks to have come clear with the ball but almost puts his defence in trouble with a square pass across goal. Luckily for him he atones to win the goal-kick.
3'
Darida's delivery from wide is poor and bounces straight through to Alisson waiting in the Brazil goal.
2'
Brazil keep the early possession but it's the Czechs who have the first attack. There's a bit of a goalmouth scramble as Schick misses a header and the home side win a free-kick with a foul by Casemiro.

Brazil get this friendly match underway!
Hello and welcome to our live text commentary of this international friendly match between the Czech Republic and Brazil at the Eden Arena in Prague.
Both the Czech Republic and Brazil have some work to do. Brazil's preparations for the Copa America this June suddenly came to a juddering halt as they were held 1-1 by lowly Panama in Porto a few days ago. Brazil may have put out a young side but they need to do better if they want to win the Copa.
The Czech Republic, meanwhile, are recovering from the heavy 5-0 beating England inflicted upon them in their Euro 2020 qualifying group. Playing a team that made the World Cup quarter-finals last year may inspire the Czechs to show they are better than that defeat suggested.
CZECH REPUBLIC (4-2-3-1): Jiri Pavlenka; Vladimir Coufal, Marek Suchy, Ondrej Celustka, Filip Novak; David Pavelka, Jaromir Zmrhal; Lukas Masopust, Vladimir Darida (c), Tomas Soucek; Patrik Schick.
CZECH REPUBLIC SUBS: Pavel Kaderabek, Theodor Gebre Selassie, Jakub Jankto, Milan Skoda, Tomas Koubek, Ondrej Kudela, Martin Frydek, Alex Kral, Tomas Kalas, Ondrej Kolar, Matej Vydra.
BRAZIL (4-3-3): Alisson, Danilo, Marquinhos, Thiago Silva, Alex Sandro; Allan, Casemiro (c), Lucas Paqueta; Coutinho, Roberto Firmino, Richarlison.
BRAZIL SUBS: Eder Militao, Miranda, Weverton, Fabinho, Fagner, Felipe Anderson, Everton, Ederson, David Neres, Alex Telles, Arthur, Gabriel Jesus.
The two sides - the Czechs in their white away strip, Brazil in their famous yellow and blue - enter the pitch.
Brazil aren't taking this lying down. They also make a change for the second half - Everton comes on for Paqueta.
There's a delay as Daruda goes down with an injury off the ball. He looks to have picked it up from an innocuous challenge during a Czech attack.
The Czechs' next two games in June and September will be a crucial Euro 2020 qualifying double-header against Montenegro. If they keep playing like they did today and not as they did against England, they could well end up qualifying. That's all for now. Goodbye!
That result means the Czechs end the international break nursing two straight defeats, while Brazil get an air of confidence back ahead of the Copa America.
