Well, I'm Brazilian and watched it here. We're not that happy about the new team. After the last World Cup fiasco the team has a new coach and many guys who were never part of the team before.

Ronaldinho was very criticized for his great performance outside the national team, but not so great acting when wearing the yellow shirt.

But we can't forget that football (I can't call it soccer, sorry)is also luck, as much as discipline and talent. It's not a rare fact to see great teams losing to others not so good at the moment. we have an excellent example. The national team from 1982 was considered as good as the legendary one from 1970 (Pelé, Carlos Alberto, Rivelino...) but we lost a match against Italy and that's a defeat that no Brazilian can forget.


Can you read my mind?
