Hulk, Fábio Aurélio, Carlos Eduardo, and Michel Bastos are the notable new faces. I am little surprised to see Carlos Eduardo and Julio Baptista get the call over Diego. Baptista is hardly seeing the pitch right now at Roma, and is probably leaving the club soon. Fábio Aurélio's call up was long overdue, and he is a very ... [read]

BRASIL 0 X 0 VENEZUELA Well that’s it for qualification. It was not an emphatic end to the campaign, but not a bad one either. These last two matches saw many non-regulars get a look. I think sometimes we forgot what a grueling endurance test South American qualification really can be. To finish first in the standing after ... [read]

Regardless, I don't mind this result. The team played well in a match that did not matter much. I'll have the full recap tomorrow. ... [read]

They'll play a solid Ghana team in the World Cup final on Friday. This was a well deserved win for the U20 team, although Costa Rica looked like a very legit side. Alan Kardec scored the game winner, and could have had more on more than a few occasions in this match. Rogério Lourenço has really done a masterful ... [read]
