yes i was really disappointed by the coachs strategy to field in ronaldinho,who looked lacklustre,no penetration skills,and the averae age of players are too much.brazil got spared by their true and unsung goal keeper dida,who saved them time and time.
It's always good to keep ur spirits high in adverse situations.Just dont think of BRAZIL playing the final on July 9th.There are quite good teams than Brazil to play the spot.It is not the matter of superstars in the team.11 stars shining together is always brighter than 4 stars shining at intervals.WAIT & SEE.
My prediction on the winner of FIFA 2006 WC:Germany
My prediction on the 1st runner up of FIFA 2006 WC:Spain
I think brazil did play as per their match plan. I think they are not going to fire guns in the very first game. Wait and see! Future matches are very exciting.
i think that brazil will play percentage game in their group matches and i am sure that all the gems of brazil will sparkel in the forthcoming matches which will enbale to retain the world cup for this reason the brazil supporters through out the world must not get demoralised.
hey lets not forget that brazil had very less matches to play as a team before coming into this competition. they will definitely comeback in this competition. the best thing about the match was that brazil played as one team not just 11 induviduals. inspite of each one being a star in his club, they had no hangups. there was a team spirit. this will take them a long way.
Brazil, had a grt game plan. They played accordingly. Brazil shifted gears at the right time, See the calmness in every player. U can figure that from every move they build up.
Never they errored.
Its a grt start to their world cup series. DONT forget Croats are potential Semifinalist. Its is an amazing team with brilliant team work which is meant for the East blocks since early 40ies.
If ur a keen brazil fan u will understand the nuances of the game.
also I agree with all the Ronaldo was a passer by in this match. Except for him rest all played decently for an first match. Ronaldo had ONLY 1 shot at goal, 3 time he got the pass. Made ONLY one attempt for the ball. Rest all the time he was Jay walking in NO mans area.
Just watch out for the rest of match how Brazil hits the top gears < u all will agree with me soon.
