Fear: U-20 Squad of Atletico-MG Beats the Reserves of Brazil

By: Bruno Romani | June 16th, 2008

I know, it was only practice. But the reserves of Brazil managed to lose for the U-20 squad of Atletico-MG 1-0. Brazil played with: Doni, Daniel Alves, Thiago Silva, Luisão e Kléber; Hernanes, Anderson, Elano e Júlio Baptista; Alexandre Pato e Adriano.

Atletico-MG seats on the 7th spot in the Brazilian league.

These are the people who will be on the pitch to save us against Argentina if the starting line-up keep their game of recent matches. It should be a shame for guys like Adriano, Anderson, Pato, Daniel Alvez and Elano to lose for a semi-pro side. But they don’t care. The selecao has become a place for fashion, faces and merchandise.

  Dunga! Why not let this U-20 squad of Atletico-MG play for Brazil national team!? They don’t have million dollars price tag on them, but they played with the passion and eager to win.

  hey bruno this is jalil of the brazil world cup blog, very true what you say these buceta’s dont have love for the yellow jeresy or brazil’s history of football, its is very sad to see. I blame world cup 2006 ever since then our players have become alcholic unprofessionals who loose form and get over weight. plus to make matters worse our coach our coach is a bit of a num nut tooo. hopefully we get a 4-0 drubbing by argentina and then brazilian football can have a face lift

  It might be funny — if it were not so tragic….
