now FIFA cant choose Singapore alrdy -
seriously... no one!
only argentina their arch rivals know how to break their samba move wif tango.
i feel that right now ony the brazilians can beat brazilians. i.e. if the players get too cocky will bring them to downfall themselves. -
It will likely be Italy.
The '82 final against Italy, Brazil had..for a long time.. regarded as the best team put forward but lost in a Final. No thanks to Paolo Rossi, the dirty play and the stingy defence. -
The World Cup qualifiers show no team is unbeatable.. with exceptions of Holland (0 losses 2 draws 10 wins), Portugal (0 losses 3 draws 9 wins), France (0 losses 5 draws 5 wins), Switzerland (0 losses 6 draws 4 wins), Serbia & Montenegro (0 losses 4 draws 6 wins), Spain (0 losses 5 draws 5 wins), Croatia (0 losses 3 draws 7 wins)
Now we look at Brazil (2 losses 7 draws 9 wins)
Brazil 3 - Argentina 1 (all brazil scored was 3 penalties... zzzz)
Brazil 1 - Ecuador 0
Ecuador 1 - Brazil 0
Argentina 3 - Brazil 1
Other interesting home matches.
Brazil 3 - Uruguay 3
Uruguay 1 - Brazil 1
Brazil 0 - Colombia 0
Brazil seemed to encounter problem with fast-paced attacking football...
Brazil undefeatable? Think again.
The match starts at 0-0 with 11 players on each side. Germany got 13 players on their sides, 1 referee, and stadium fans. -

I think everyone also hope they can beat Brazil..
skill for skill i think no country can compare with Brazil..
think one way to close them down is solid defence n hard working midfield..
play like Greece did in Euro04.. plus abit of 'dirty' plays...
else all pray hard that Brazil have a off day then -
Its not easy when you have Ronaldinho in full flight. He will draw the players to him or commit them into fouling him. While its hard to keep him quiet with his pace and movement, one of the ways to frustrate him is to cut him off from his supply of the ball. Make sure he does not get the ball.

hopefully not by liquor and babes from those pubs they'll probably be visiting after the matches.

well, i think too much have been written and said about Brazil...
in this WC, i think every team have a chance of beating them,
they are simply not as great as they seems to be....
Chelsea was unbeatable, as thought by many, becoz they had a very solid central mid...but look at Brazil, their Central pitch quite weak.
Their strength is only in the attack with their fantastic 4...but that means u just need to cut off ronaldino and kaka and kill off their supply.
Argentine are in best position to beat them as they did for many occassion, even England can do it, Portugal, Czech all can -

No Ronaldinho,get the ball to Kaka.
No Kaka,get the ball to Robinho.
No Robinho,get the ball to Adriano.
No Adriano,get the ball to Ronaldo.
Brazil's goals can come from anywhere,anyone. -
LOL.. that one maybe wait for the 2098 world cup (:Originally posted by Gordonator:reminds me of years ago, i play Fifa 98. i used Singapore and beat Brazil in the world cup. -
agreed but the idea is to snuff out the most dangerous threat. alternatively play the old fashioned Catenaccio to counter the attackers. Ugly game but effective result.Originally posted by Patrik:Brazil aint a one man show team.
