I watched the Brazil versus USA U20 match. The USA team played well – Fred Adu played great soccer.
Brazil´s problems: – the young players know that there are European agents watching they play, so one is always trying to outshine the other. That is a not a real team , just a bunch of show-offs.
And there are great young players who are not in the squad who I think would do much better than these guys : Danilinho and Tchô from Atlético, Guilherme from Cruzeiro among many others.
Brazil´s coach : is that a coach? Why make it easier on the US squad when the match was already hard as it was? Taking Renato Augusto out of the team was a joke. And putting Carlos Eduardo playing on the right flank when in his club he plays left seemed like Nelson Rodrigues was asking for it. The Americans couldn´t do nothing but grant his wish.

I saw Roni’s goal. Despite the loss, I think this is the best Cruzeiro side since 2003.

Saw a bit of the Internacional-SaoPaulo match. SaoPaulo’s guys seemed to be trying for “cuteness” and impressing the fans with, oh, such dexterity — only to have the ball stolen away…? Maybe Internacional is coming back. Periodically looked impressive…..

Shame, Bruno, shame.
In all fairness, I didn’t watch the USA-Poland game when I could have, and it ended 6-1. So you’re not alone.
