COPA AMERICA: VENEZUELA VS BRAZIL

[jenni_blog]

This was an example of a team playing like a TEAM (Venezuela) against a team of players who were not experienced either at this level, or at playing together. Some have criticized Brazil's players for being arrogant and having super egos. Personally, I think it is the former, not the latter so much. This team needs time to grow together. On the other hand, Venezuela's team is well-balanced, with a very capable midfield, who dominated Brazil's midfielders. However, the score ended 0-0, so it will be interesting to see how both these teams do in future games.

oh finally. i saw so much brazil hate recently and i don't even love them that much but this kinda hurts... and yesterday really sucked because david didn't play:((((( really hope he will tomorrow, he's useful in the attack too!

I think it's a shame that Brazil is being criticized so much when it's really a young team just starting to learn to play together. And they said that David was not playing because his form had dropped off. :(
I don't know what that even means...he's a defender, not a striker. But this result was no suprise to me...a team has to spend some time together in order to be a strong force. Like Paraguay or Uruguay. Those two will probably do very well here.
