If Brazil doesn't crush Argentina, I will be disappointed.

By far one helluva line-up. Bernard, Neymar, Damiao, Lucas, Dede, Paulinho, Arouca... mannnn its like feeding lambs to the wolves!!

[windkick]

Also whats the deal with Riquelme, is he retired officially? What's the latest rumors on him?

[Ganso]

no montillo

still,awesome attack

[Catracho]

We should cream Argentina regardless of who they line-up in attack. Brazil's bench is just so deep and the talent on the field is just miles apart from what they have currently.

Damiao and Bernard on the bench?? spoiling Brazil... and thats about the only time you can say that about our NT

[BarrileteCosmico]

We're going to get killed if we play that midfield.

Then again we're setting it up for the counter since we're playing a 5-3-2 anyway, but the only "creative" player in midfield is Maxi.

[Catracho]

Game kicks-off tonight at 22:00 Brasilia Time

8:00 Central US Time

[Catracho]
