Juninho’s Free Kicks

They’ve both retired from inernational football now, but every time Roberto Carlos blasted a free-kick into the stands, Brazil could and should have let Juninho Pernambucano take it instead.

Tip of the hat to the Brat pack.

Imagine his free-kicks with the WC2006 diabolic ball…

Rain: No, Duh! Really? Imagine that!

I hung out with a bunch of Brazillians in Berlin and they would cheer loudiest when Juninho came on a sub, louder than all the other subs. The supporters were only happy to see him come on – they obviously knew that Parreira was managing that team poorly.
Why was he only a sub? Well, I think everyone expected Ronaldinho to his job, eh?

Wow, i only watched like half of that video, and that’s all I needed. Those are some tremendous free kicks!

Definately should’ve been played more. Its a shame its too late for him now…

Enough already with all the Brazil stuff. Should Juninho have taken the free kicks? Did Ronaldinho have too much sex and video games? Does anybody really care anymore? Brazil sucked and that’s the bottom line. Yes, Marco your Materazzi got fair treatment. He got to hold the cup. What more do you want?

I wouldn’t mind seeing a compilation of roberto carlos’s misses, back in 98 he was awesome, but has been pretty crap ever since on the international stage
