Spaniards, Shipping Costs, and Soccer…
I know, I know…it’s called football. I’m with you all on that, but sometimes doesn’t a spot of alliteration just sound good despite it’s accuracy to the sport that we love? Ok, you’re right…that was inexcusable and I apologize. You may have read my post last week about my buddy and I planning our trip ...

Brazil is France’s little bitch
And here we go again… Brazil’s brand new kit was definitly not a lucky one. Today, Brazil should have had better football, players and better morale yet every single time we play France – and that includes today, unfortunately – the canarinha loses. Brazil has not had a win facing the French since August 26th ...

Finally, Messi. Argentina 1 – 0 Brazil
Ok, if every 5 years Argentina wins a match against Brazil, one which is very unimportant as this one was, I am still a happy person. Today, the Hermanos finally were able to kick some ghosts and beat Seleção 1-0 at Khalifa International Stadium in Doha, Qatar. And Messi, was able to finally score against ...

Is Brazil ready?
Today Brazil had it’s last friendly against Tanzania before facing North Korea on July. The win, 1-5, was expected and the game was somewhat slow (of course, no normal person on earth would get close to injury right now), but it also showcased some of Brazil’s weaknesses and strengths. Let’s hit the negative first: there ...

World Cup tests: Zimbabwe 0 – 3 Brazil
Brazil had no major issues beating Zimbabwe today, 0-3, on a friendly in Harare with goals from Michel Bastos (and what a goal!), Elano and Robinho. It was a great start, as Dunga tested the players before the first World Cup game against North Korea. I liked what I saw. Players seemed excited to play ...

Brazil 2 – 0 Ireland.
Brazil played its last match before going to the World Cup in South Africa. Dunga’s team did its job by beating Ireland 2 – 0 with two oals from Robinho, but some things are still clearly wrong. To start, Brazil’s left midfield, which hasn’t been working since Roberto Carlos left in 2006. So many have ...

Dunga very close to defining who will play in South Africa
Yesterday Dunga (and his loyal soldier Jorginho) called the squad to take on Ireland on March 2nd, the last friendly match before Dunga calls the final players who will play the World Cup in South Africa. No surprises, really. Ronaldinho is probably staying out even though he’s been doing well in AC Milan. Punk Robinho ...

Another Big One Defeated: Brazil 1 – 0 England
Brazil and England was going to be a reserve festival, as injuries took away many players from the match. So if in theory this is a match with no favorites, in reality, Brazil got that title as it had less players in the ER. Brazil had the responsibility to play better and add another match ...

The secret is in the yellow shirt…
Nice commercial by Brahma made for the friendly tomorrow against England. I even cried a little
