COPA AMERICA

fcb wrote:Venezuela creating some dangerous situations on the counter. They are easily able to bypass Brazil's midfield, which is probably not hard when you're up against Lucas and Ramires. Brazil have incredible talent going forward, but the team is getting split into 6-4 (the 4 attackers plus the fullbacks) and is not cohesive enough.

the same issues with argentina, except the team is literally split into 4-3-3. the defenders,defend, the midfield tries to do what they think is midfield work and the attackers attack.

basile apart, euoprean football is so far ahead of the south americans when it comes to tactics and overall team management.

Ganso is not making a good game

I no even notice Robinho was playing

Venezuala have officially parked the bus.

Massive let off for Brazil there - Venezuala were through on goal and pulls up play for a Brazil foul.

CORRUPT!! Slur Alex has bribed the referees again!

This game has become rather boring in the last 20 mins. Brazil are huffing and puffing, but it's all individual dribbling and tricks, and not much "normal" passing football. And the less said about Ramires-Lucas, the better.

Maybe in Europe. In Brazil, Ganso is as much hyped as Neymar. The thing is Ganso spent a long time injured, so he was a little forgotten for some time. He's coming back now.

Told you these 'Peons are always late finding out stuff about football. "In two years" he said.

Ramires fucks up again...what a dreadful game he's having.

Is Ganso the best play maker in the world already?

Im a bit surprised Puro hasnt had some comments to make about his boy Nadal today too..you'd think he'd have some words of sympathy for his brother.

Ansolutely terrible. Is he really Brazilian? His 1st touch has fucked up so many passes in this half.

HT 0-0.

Well, a forgettable first half. Not even Puro's hype can hide this so far. I was hoping to see swashbuckling South American football. Instead it's been a snorefest.

Ganso et al need to wake the fuck up.

The haircuts would worry me if I were Brazilian. Seems these guys think they are superstars already

very well observed. it's the kind of comparison you're often afraid to make because of the weight of one name - in this case, Zidane -, but it's true: their styles are similar.

Robinho's hairstyle

you can see he went to the gayest hairdresser in Milan.

I knoe people think Neymar is overrated, but for me this tag goes to Ganso

Ramires is a bit shit, where is hernanes.

brasil is searching for an new hero

the robinho hype has damaged my believe in brasils hype products, and neymar remembers me on him, he has the same stature^^

but hes only 19, i will judge him when he joins europe

I'm not one to make a rash judgement after watching a game for 5 minutes, but, on this evidence, 2014 could be a rather painful experience for the 'Mericans if they don't implement some sort of structure to their play.

Spain would easily win this tournament

Is this a friendly match?

I think Haye will go for it any minute now.

This is thoroughly disappointing.

Ganso has disappointed, he will be too slow for the european game me thinks more of a riquelme than a zidane.

The argentine is the real deal

Alves's positioning is useless. Also playing too centrally, so never stretching the play like he does for Barca.

Brazil is shockingly regular.

Robinho being subbed =

true. he's the kind of player that goes into deep sleep sometimes.

horrible game. even worse than argentina's. this copa américa has been shite up to now. I hope Uruguay will save it.

Oh shit

I didnt watch this game as I was watching some other obscure bullshit that I'll pretend to have had money on.

Let me guess though, those Brazil fuckos showed up saying "this is easy, we've already won" and they got taught a lesson by my Venezuelan couzins

Tell me its not the case?

I knew it, I had money on 0-0 CA$$$$$$HHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Watched all 3 matches so far, and Puro, I'm a fan of South American football including club footy but this has been most underwhelming. Paraguay later will provide fest , hopefully that's the case as I've money on under 2 goals and 0-0 scoreline
