U-20 Through to the Final

By: Duvel | October 13th, 2009 | 5 Comments »

They’ll play a solid Ghana team in the World Cup final on Friday. This was a well deserved win for the U20 team, although Costa Rica looked like a very legit side. Alan Kardec scored the game winner, and could have had more on more than a few occasions in this match. Rogério Lourenço has really done a masterful job with this team. They’ll be the clear favorites for the final.

Bolivia – Brazil Recap

By: Duvel | October 12th, 2009 | 5 Comments »

Apologies for the tardiness of this recap, it was a busy day today. I just found the time to put this together. Basically, and unsurprisingly, yesterday’s match sucked, there was no other way to put it. Its gotta be hard to motivate yourself for a rather meaningless match in a very difficult and exhausting setting due to the ... [read]


Bolivia 2 – 1 Brazil

That sucked. The team was very uninspired this afternoon. Josue and Miranda have no business being on the national team…none. Bolivia definitely deserved the points. I’ll have the full recap either tonight or tomorrow afternoon, no one is getting more than a 6.5 rating.

U-20 Into the Quarterfinals

By: Duvel | October 7th, 2009 | 4 Comments »

This was an impressive attacking display from the U-20 team, but a not so nice defensive show at the same time. This match could have easily been a draw at the end of 90 minutes. Alex Teixiera was oustanding today and is definitely making a name for himself.
The U-20’s next match is on Saturday against the winner of the Nigeria-Germany ... [read]


Dunga Calls Helton

By: Duvel | October 5th, 2009 | 11 Comments »

Backup keeper Victor was injured and missed Gremio’s 3-3 draw this weekend with yet another muscle injury for the team. As a result, in a bit of a surprising move, Dunga had to make an immediate call up to the national team, picking Helton of FC Porto. Helton is a bit of a shaky keeper. I thought Gomes ... [read]
