ISTANBUL – Neymar scored a goal in each half to lead Brazil to a 4-0 win over Turkey in a friendly on Wednesday, giving coach Dunga his fifth win in a row since returning to the national team after the World Cup.

Neymar broke the deadlock in the 21st minute and rounded off the scoring in the 60th. Turkey defender Semih Kaya scored an own goal in the 25th and Brazil midfielder Willian found the net in the 44th.

The Turkish crowd loudly chanted Neymar's name after his second goal and jeered the home side during parts of the match.

Brazil has won every game since Dunga took over after its disappointing home World Cup. It had previously beaten Colombia, Ecuador, Argentina and Japan.

Dunga's team has outscored its opponents 12-0.
