It is taken short for Neymar to clip to the back post, but as David Luiz fails to centre it with a header the referee blows his whistle to bring the game to a close!
90' +3
Neymar gets his heels clipped by Tufan as he attempts to spin away from his marker and surge towards the penalty area. A final chance for Brazil to get a fifth from this free kick, perhaps.
90' +1
We are into the first of an additional three minutes.
90'
Almost a chance for Neymar to net his hat-trick but Douglas Costa's attempt to lay the ball across the top of the box for him was cut out by Irtegun.
89'
Neymar is the receipient of a knee to the back of the head from Irtegun as he went to ground in search of a free kick. The contact was minimal and he is soon back to his feet so that play can continue.
87'
The tempo of the game has slowed considerably now, with both side's simply seeking to hold onto possession once they have it. No risks are being taken at this late stage, with Brazil happy to hold out for the win.
85'
A. Potuk enters the game and replaces U. Bulut.
Fred enters the game and replaces Luiz Gustavo.
A change for either side, here. For Brazil, Luiz Gustavo is replaced by a third Shakhtar Donetsk player making their debut tonight, Fred, while Potuk replaces Bulut for the hosts.
84'
Turkey have just one point from three games in their Euro 2016 qualifying group, and ahead of their meeting with Kazakhstan this isn't the kind of result they would have wanted.
82'
Casemiro clips a lovely pass over the top of the defence for Neymar to run onto, but as he attempts to round Babacan the flag goes up to signal that the forward was offside.
80'
Camdal starts running back towards his own goal and Neymar attempts to dispossesses him by sticking a foot in. He gets a touch on the ball but the right-back goes to ground and earns a free kick.
Minute
Description
79'
T. Çamdal enters the game and replaces M. Topal.
Turkey are beginning to look stretched at the back as they step up their search for a goal in response to Turkey's four. They need to be careful with the fresh legs of Douglas Costa up top.
77'
Douglas Costa enters the game and replaces Willian.
Another substitution for Dunga as Willian goes of to be replaced by Douglas Costa, the second Shakhtar Donetsk player to make his international debut for Brazil tonight.
75'
The Selecao have been far more reserved since their fourth goal, allowing Turkey to enjoy a great share of possession. Other than that Bulut chance a few moments ago, though, they've struggled to call Diego Alves into action.
73'
Roberto Firmino enters the game and replaces Luiz Adriano.
Philippe Coutinho enters the game and replaces Oscar.
Casemiro enters the game and replaces Fernandinho.
Changes for Brazil, here, with Casemiro, Coutinho and Roberto Firmino, who makes his debut, replacing Fernandinho, Oscar and Luiz Adriano.
72'
GREAT SAVE! Diego Alves is really staking his claim for a regular spot in the squad! The keeper makes a great stop to deny Bulut after the striker was released by Turan's brilliant pass.
71'
Brazil break at speed, with Willian carrying the ball down the left. He lays it off for Oscar, who fires another relatively tame shot straight at Babacan. It takes him two attempts to hold it, mind.
70'
Bulut has had to feed off scraps up top for Turkey and, up against David Luiz and Miranda, he has had little joy.
69'
David Luiz strikes the free kick and it clips the wall on its way out for a corner. Oscar delivers the dead ball, which is headed away by the hosts' defence.
68'
C. Erkin gets yellow.
67'
Fernandinho steals the ball off the toe of Erkin inside the Turkey half and the midfielder sends him tumbling to ground. The referee shows him a yellow card and gives Brazil a chance to test the keeper from a free kick.
66'
Turkey are currently 40 places below Brazil in the FIFA rankings. In 46th place, they are at their lowest point since 1998, and although the rankings are often criticised, the gulf in class is certainly evident tonight.
64'
Topal comes in from behind on Neymar, catching the forward on the foot, so the referee awards the visitors a free kick. Oscar takes it short to Neymar, but his attempted first-time pass down the channel for Luiz Adriano is intercepted.
62'
Erkin curls a cross in from the left but Bulut is unable to get between David Luiz and Miranda and get his head on the ball. Brazil's defence has looked pretty solid tonight.
61'
Neymar gets an ovation from the home fans following that goal, and they've now turned to whistling their own side!
60'
Neymar has scored a goal for Brazil! Assist by Willian.
GOOOOOOOAAAAL!! NEYMAR GETS A LOVELY SECOND! Turkey's defence is cut open following a simple one-two between the Barcelona man and Willian. Irtegun attempts to get across and challenge Neymar, but he holds off the challenge and rolls a shot into the far corner! Superb football!
58'
The Selecao are attacking with great numbers again. Oscar pops up on the right this time, and attempts to slide a pass behind Koybasi for Danilo. He doesn't judge it quite right, though, and the Turkey defender manages to intercept.
56'
Brazil break after Fernandinho wins the ball in the middle of the pitch. He feeds Neymar and, after dribbling into the box, the Barcelona man backheels it to the top of the box for Oscar. He shapes to shoot with his right foot but curls a low shot into Babacan's arms.
54'
Willian attempts to send Danilo to the byline but Koybasi makes a brilliant challenge to deny him. Brazil instantly regain possession and Willian earns a corner after tricking his way into the box! The delivery is met with a powerful header from David Luiz but Babacan reacts quickly to parry it aside for another corner!
53'
After hobbling off the pitch, play restarts and Sen makes his way back into the action.
51'
Sen is down after a late challenge from Fernandinho, and the medical staff rush onto the pitch to treat him. It wasn't a malicious challenge, so he may be able to continue.
49'
Diego Alves is forced to clear the ball away with his head as Sen tries to latch onto a pass over the top of the defence, which followed David Luiz's original headed clearance! He just about pulls it off.
48'
The changes seem to have added a bit more confidence and stability to the Crescent-Stars when they have possession. They manage to pen Brazil back inside their own half from the restart, but Diego Alves has not been tested.
46'
V. Babacan enters the game and replaces V. Demirel.
V. Şen enters the game and replaces M. Erdinç.
C. Erkin enters the game and replaces B. Kısa.
S. İnan enters the game and replaces Hamit Altıntop.
We are back underway! There have been a number of changes for Turkey, including between the sticks as Babacan replaces Demirel. Kisa, Altintop and Erding are the others to make way for Erkin, Inan and Sen.
45' +1
Just a few seconds are played before the referee blows his whistle to signal the end of the half!
44'
Willian has scored a goal for Brazil! Assist by Neymar.
GOOOOOOAAAAL!! BRAZIL MAKE IT THREE! Neymar burns away from Irtegun on the left, racing in behind and into the box. The defender eventually gets a touch to the ball, which deflects it into the path of Willian, who arrives late to guide a low shot inside the near post!
43'
Claims for a penalty as Luiz Adriano looks to roll Kaya and latch onto a pass in the box, but he is brought to ground. The referee allows play to continue despite protests from the striker!
42'
Chance for Brazil! The Turkey defence fail to deal with a high ball in the box and it drops for Luiz Adriano. He darts off to the right and is followed by the keeper. The striker rolls a pass back to Willian, whose attempt to dink the ball into the far corner of the vacant net misses the target.
41'
WHAT A BALL! Willian makes a fool of Koybasi, shifting the ball past him and using his pace to beat the left-back to the byline. His cross flashes across the box, two yards from the goalline, but Neymar cannot reach it to convert at the back post!
40'
Good play from Brazil, but they are trying to be a little too intricate. Filipe Luis and Oscar combine well with a neat exchange of passes encouraging the left-back into an advanced, but more central, position. Rather than shoot he slides a pass to the feet of Luiz Adriano, and the Shakhtar man instantly looks for Neymar. The Barcelona man is marked tightly, though, and his shot is blocked by Kaya.
38'
That is a woeful touch from Erding! He is played through on goal, one-on-one with Diego Alves, with a lovely pass from Turan, but his first touch sends the ball across the box and behind him, enabling David Luiz to get it out.
37'
Turkey win a corner, which is sent to the near post for Bulut. The Galatasaray striker cannot get to the ball first, though, and Brazil get it clear for a throw in. The hosts finally seem to be finding their feet.
35'
Willian and Danilo play a give-and-go on the right, with the former sending in a cross from close to the byline. The movement in the middle is poor, and after an unorthodox touch from Tufan, Irtegun hooks it to safety.
33'
JUST WIDE! Altintop flights in a great cross from the left which is flicked on at the near post by Erding but drops agonisingly wide of Diego Alves' far post! Almost one back for Turkey.
32'
There is no real tempo to Turkey's play here, but Danilo shows his inexperience by clattering through the back of Turan when the Atletico Madrid man was going nowhere. The hosts are awarded a free kick but it is headed behind.
30'
SUPER SAVE! Diego Alves is forced to make his first stop of the night! The Valencia keeper leaps to his left to turn Turan's bending shot from the edge of the box over the bar!
29'
There have been a couple of decent crosses into the box for the Crescent-Stars in the opening half hour, but players attacking them have been few and far between.
28'
Topal drops deep to receive the ball inside the centre circle and revive a faltering attack, however, he passes straight to the opposition! Fortunately for him, Neymar, who was not expecting to receive the ball, is caught unaware and loses it straight away.
26'
Terim will not be happy with how his team are performing at the moment. They are allowing Brazil to control the possession, failing to put enough pressure on their creative players. If they continue in this manner we could see another couple of goals before the interval.
24'
S. Kaya is unfortunate, scores an own goal!
GOOOOOOOAAAAL!! Kaya puts it into his own net! Moments after a stray pass from Altintop brings a Turkey attack to an end, the ball is in the back of their net! Willian laid it on for the overlapping Danilo and his cross was diverted into the goal by Kaya at the near post! Things really aren't going the way of the hosts.
22'
Oscar brings the ball forward on the left and looks to send Neymar to the byline with a low pass. Tufan reads it and gets a foot in, and the Chelsea man fouls him in his haste to stop him from breaking up the other end.
20'
Neymar has scored a goal for Brazil! Assist by Fernandinho.
GOOOOOOOAAAAL!! NEYMAR OPENS THE SCORING! Fernandinho clips an exquisite pass from inside his own half which is latched onto by the Barcelona man. He brings it down on his chest before dribbling into the area and stabbing a shot past Demirel and into the bottom corner!
19'
JUST OVER! Willian dribbles across the top of the box and draws a foul 20 yards from goal in a central position. Neymar stands over the free kick and clips a shot towards the top corner with his left foot. The effort lacks the dip to bring it back on target, but it had Demirel worried.
17'
NEYMAR! Altintop plays a sloppy pass back towards his keeper and Neymar is instantly fed in behind the defence. The Barcelona man manages to get around Derimel but his touch takes him wide, and Irtegun does enough to hold him up and stop him getting a shot away. He tries to beat the centre-back unsuccessfully, and the hosts come away with the ball.
16'
Neymar holds onto the ball for too long and dribbles it back inside his own half. He attempts to turn away from the closing Turkey players but Bulut gets a foot to the ball to dispossess him. He appeals to the referee but he isn't interested.
15'
Tufan shows good composure to dribble out from the back, but as soon as Turkey look to pass the halfway line Willian gets a touch to one of their passes to win possession back for the Selecao. This is encouraging pressing play from the visitors.
13'
Koybasi curls in a teasing cross from the left which Bulut looks to attack at the near post. He fails to get his head to the ball and Filipe Luis is on hand to nod it away before anyone else can get on the end of it.
11'
Danilo has shown plenty of adventure on the right, and again he bends another cross into the box at the first opportunity. It is headed straight back out, though, and Brazil reset. Neymar catches an arm as he looks to turn his marker but the referee is unmoved.
9'
OSCAR! A great strike from the midfielder! He picks up the ball in the centre of the Turkey half and instantly turns to face goal. Upon getting to within 25 yards of the net, he cuts onto his right foot and lashes a low shot. It is on target, but also straight down the middle and Demirel holds it at the first attempt.
8'
A long ball up from the back is missed by Kaya and Willian, and Neymar looks to latch onto it and race in on goal. Irtegun gets to it first, though, sweeping up at the back in a composed manner.
6'
Erding picks up the ball on the right and cuts inside of David Luiz with a simple feigned shot. He plays a one-two with Bulut, but Filipe gets into position to block him from receiving the return pass and shepherd the ball out of play.
4'
Danilo pushes up on the right and receives the ball from Neymar. He attempts to whip a cross into the centre but it is deflected behind for a corner. Oscar sends it to the near post, where it is headed out for another corner. Again the Chelsea midfielder fails to pick out a team-mate, and Turkey remove the threat.
2'
It's been a slightly bitty opening couple of minutes, with Willian being closed quickly on the right. The Chelsea man has managed to draw a couple of fouls, but he won't want that sort of attention all night.
1'
The pre-match formalities are over, and we are underway!
Hello and welcome to this LIVE commentary on the friendly meeting between Turkey and Brazil. The two nations are enjoying starkly contrasting form at the moment; the Selecao are unbeaten under new coach Dunga, while the Crescent-Stars are winless in five. Fenerbahce's Sukru Saracoglu is the venue, and I, Tom Webber, will guide you through all the action.
Brazil and Turkey have met on five previous occasions, and the Crescent-Stars have never been victorious. A 0-0 draw in their previous meeting in 2007 is the best they have managed, following four consectuive defeats against the South American nation.
The most famous meetings between these two nations came at World Cup 2002. The first was in the group stages, with Rivaldo’s playacting leading to Hakan Unsal’s dismissal in a 2-1 win for the Selecao. Both teams progressed and the pair then met in the semi-finals, where a goal from Brazilian legend Ronaldo earned the Canarinho a spot in the final, which they won.
Brazil (4-3-3): Diego Alves; Danilo, Miranda, David Luiz, Filipe Luis; Luiz Gustavo, Fernandinho, Oscar; Willan, Luiz Adriano, Neymar.
Neymar netted four goals in the 4-0 drubbing of Japan last month, and tonight he will play to the left of central striker Luiz Adriano. The Shakhtar Donetsk forward recently became the first player to score consecutive hat-tricks in the Champions League, so there's plenty of firepower up top for Brazil.
This is Fatih Terim’s 108th game in charge of the Turkey national team. He has won 52 games at the helm, suffering 27 defeats and the same amount of draws. The coach caused some controversy by leaving Bayer Leverkusen duo Omer Toprak and Hakan Calhanoglu out of his squad for this international period, so needs a turnaround in form. The Crescent-Stars have conceded nine goals in their last five games, none of which they won.
Since replacing Luiz Felipe Scolari, following the humiliation suffered at the World Cup, Dunga has taken charge of Brazil for four friendlies and won on every occasion. Furthermore, the Selecao are yet to concede a goal under his stewardship.
The teams are out on the pitch, so kick off will be upon us following the national anthems.
With the Brazilian national league closing in on its conclusion, Dunga has formed a squad solely of foreign-based players. Shakhtar's Luiz Adriano gets a start on his debut, while club team-mates Fred and Douglas Cousta could also make their first senior international appearance from the bench. Fiorentina's Neto, Hoffenheim's Roberto Firmino and Anderson Talisca of Benfica, who was called up in place of the injured Lucas Moura, could also debut tonight.
HALF TIME - Turkey 0-3 Brazil: The home fans whistle their side as they leave the pitch for the break three goals behind. Neymar and Willian netted either side of an own goal from Kaya, giving Dunga's men a commanding lead. There have been a couple of close efforts from the hosts, but they will need to step up their game when the second half commences.
The teams are back out, so the second half should be underway shortly.
FULL TIME - Turkey 0-4 Brazil: Fatih Terim's men were on the receiving end of a comprehensive beating from the Selecao, who made it five straight wins without conceding a goal under Dunga. Neymar opened the scoring, before a Kaya own goal and a strike from Willian made it three at the break. The former Santos man then popped up with his second after the interval, which was also his 42nd for his country!
Next up for Turkey is the visit of Kazakhstan in their Euro 2016 qualifier. It should represent an easier task, but their confidence may have taken a knock following that result. Brazil, meanwhile, go up against Austria in their next fixture in six days.
That is all I, Tom Webber, have time for this evening. Thanks for joining me!
