RIO DE JANEIRO -- With the fastest goal in Olympic history, Neymar led Brazil back to the gold-medal match.The Barcelona striker scored 15 seconds into the game and converted a penalty kick in second-half injury time Wednesday to lead Brazil over Honduras 6-0 in the semifinals of the mens tournament.Gabriel Jesus added two goals in the first half at the packed Maracana Stadium and Marquinhos and Luan scored a goal each in the second.Brazil has never won the Olympic title, and lost in the final at the 2012 London Games.We won and we won well, but if in the final we dont play well again, all of this will be for nothing, Brazil midfielder Renato Augusto said. We dont want to disappoint the fans. They want us to play well and they want us to win the gold.The host country will play Germany in Saturdays final. The Germans beat Nigeria 2-0 in Sao Paulo.Brazilian fans had been hoping for a sort of rematch against Germany, whose senior team embarrassed Brazil 7-1 in the semifinals of the World Cup two years ago.Hey Germany, just wait, your turn is coming up, the fans chanted at the Maracana.Only the gold will be enough for a talented Brazilian team playing at home and considered the main title-favorite in a tournament played mostly with under-23 squads and very few stars.The Olympic gold medal is the only major trophy the five-time World Cup champions havent won in soccer.With Neymar thriving, Brazil was in command from the start in front of the more than 70,000 fans at the Maracana.It didnt take long for the Barcelona player to put the hosts ahead.Honduras defender Johnny Palacios had the ball under control at the top of the penalty area but gave it away as Neymar closed in quickly, and the striker took advantage to get on the board. His shot was initially blocked by Honduras goalkeeper Luis Lopez but the ball bounced off Neymars leg and went into the net.Neymar, one of the biggest stars at the Rio de Janeiro Games, collided with Lopez on the goal and lay on the field grimacing for several moments before trying to stand. Struggling after several steps, he collapsed again and was stretchered off the field and attended to before being able to return.Scoring a goal that early was spectacular for us, Brazil coach Rogerio Micale said. It helped us break the game open and it made everything easier.Mexico forward Oribe Peralta previously held the record for fastest goal at the Olympics after scoring 29 seconds into the final in London four years ago, when the Mexicans upset Brazil 2-1 to win the gold. Honduras striker Alberth Elis had tied that mark in a game against Portugal in the group stage at the Rio de Janeiro Games. Janine Beckie took only 20 seconds to score for Canada against Australia in the womens tournament in Rio.After Neymars early goal, Brazil was in control and Gabriel Jesus, one of Brazils most promising youngsters, added to Brazils lead in the 26th after a pass by Luan, hitting the net as the goalkeeper charged from the goal.Neymar set up Gabriel Jesus second goal with a perfect through ball behind a defender. The 19-year-old forward entered the area and hit the top of the net for his third goal at the Olympic tournament.Im happy for the goals but the most important thing is that we made it to the final, said Gabriel Jesus, who before the Olympics signed with English club Manchester City. It was important to win like this, playing well and with a lot of goals.Defender Marquinhos scored the fourth goal off a corner in the 51st, shooting from close range after the defense failed to clear the cross into the area, and Luan added another in the 79th after a perfect cross by Felipe Anderson.Honduras made it to the Olympic semifinals for the first time by eliminating two-time champion Argentina in the group stage and South Korea in the quarterfinals, but its inexperienced team never had a chance against Brazil.Any scheme will fall apart when you concede a goal with 15 seconds because of your own mistake, Honduras coach Jorge Luis Pinto said.After the match, some Honduran players were taking photos with Neymar on the field.Brazil got off to a slow start at the Olympic tournament, being held to scoreless draws against South Africa and Iraq and becoming in danger of another early elimination two years after the humiliating loss to Germany at the World Cup.But Neymar and the rest of the squad picked up the pace just in time, beating Denmark 4-0 in the final group match and eliminating Colombia 2-0 in the quarterfinals.One more win will give them the coveted Olympic gold.---Tales Azzoni on Twitter: http://twitter.com/tazzoni.

Yet his teammates say the late night assault the 23-year-old endured early Saturday morning in the citys South Side district should serve as a warning about the dangers of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, even if you are 6-foot-7 and 345-pounds like Adams. "There aint nobody whos too big," Steelers linebacker Larry Foote said. "Once youve got a weapon involved, everybodys the same size then." Adams underwent surgery after sustaining stab wounds to his leg and forearm during an attempted carjacking. His recovery time is expected to last 6-8 weeks, meaning he will miss the final week of organized team activities and next weeks minicamp. Police arrested suspects Dquay Means, 26, and Michael Paranay, 25, on Monday and charged them with attempted homicide, aggravated assault and conspiracy. The search for a third suspect is ongoing and Foote hopes the crime leads city officials to up the police presence in the popular bar district not far from the teams headquarters. Foote added he thinks the incident should serve as a wakeup call for players to "be aware of their surroundings" and avoid questionable areas at night. "I would say that nothing ever good happens after 12 oclock," Foote said. "But you should be able to be safe. You shouldnt be alone, and stuff happens. This is the type of world we live in today." Adams is penciled in as the starting right tackle but will be spelled by second-year lineman Kelvin Beachum while he rehabs. Its not exactly the way Beachum wanted to get back to his old job. Beachum started five games at right tackle at the end of the 2012 season when Adams was sidelined with an ankle injury. The Steelers plan to use him as a utility lineman this year and even have him taking snaps at centre. Hes currently on hiatus from that job, however, as he handles Adams usual post. The two are good friends and Beachum allowed he was shaken by the crime. "Its been difficult this week with him not here," Beachum said.dddddddddddd The two have locker stalls next to each other and leaned on one another during a sometimes bumpy 2012 as a series of injuries to the line forced them to quickly adapt to new roles. Beachum impressed the coaching staff so much the Steelers opted to let Doug Legursky -- who started at centre in the 2011 Super Bowl -- walk as a free agent. Beachum has spent time with former Pittsburgh lineman Tunch Ilkin to get comfortable at different spots along the line. That includes snapping the ball for the first time in his life. "You do some things, just messing around, but not taking it as seriously as Im taking it right now," Beachum said. "So, thats my biggest challenge, and Im attacking it." All that moving around can get confusing yet Beachum understands finding a way to be versatile is the key to extending his NFL career. He made the final cut last summer as a seventh-round pick out of SMU, where he was a four-year starter. His 6-2, 303-pound frame is perhaps better suited to the interior line and hes trying to get comfortable working in a confined space. "It takes some thinking, but like Coach (Mike) Tomlin says, if you know things and understand what youre doing, you wont have to think," Beachum said. "So, its all about getting to that point where theres no thinking involved. Its just playing." Something the Steelers are eager to get back to, Adams included. Center Maurkice Pouncey spent time with Adams in the hospital and called the near-miss a "blessing." "Even Mike said that the angel was with h
