Brazil 3, Chile 0 - Round of 16

Chile attacked with 3 forwards. They tried to display a fearless approach against Brazil but after some initial balance in game, match slowly started drifting towards Brazil. Before half time score was 2-0 and match ended with 3-0 on board. Kaka, Robinho and Fabiano still not very best but looks like they are improving. That's good sign for Brazil. If Kaka achieves his rhythm in next 3 matches, they will surely have good chances.

First two matches of Brazil - Group stage

I didnt find anything great with this brazilian team in WC 2010. Although they won both matches but could not display the quality play. In pockets, Kaka, Robinho, Fabiano, Elano, Maicon, Lucio demostrated brilliant play but could not continue that for 90 minutes. Fabiano was looking similar to Rivaldo :) Robinho has good dribbling skills but converting that in goal matters most. Kaka is heavily marked but his game was bit improved against Ivory Cost compared to first match. Hope he finds his form back. Elano was a surprise for me. I never heard about this guy but probably he was the star for Brazil with his hard work and excellent passes.

I am with Brazil. What about you?

Soccer world cup has arrived again with full of colors and excitement. I am with Brazil. No doubt at all. I dont know how it started and when it started but I have been with Brazil since 1990. I still remember how I was following Brazil in world cup 1994 and became fan of Romario Bebeto combination. Then in 1998 when Brazil lost final I felt too bad. In 2002 Ronaldo did the trick along with Rivaldo, Ronaldinho. After a not so good performance in 2006, its time for Brazil to fire again.

I am with Brazil because I have seen them playing best of ground play with very artistic move. Sometime in such a manner that you will feel like listening any musical instrument.

Lets enjoy this World Cup. Best of luck seleção.....
