This Brazil team might be no vintage, very European in their tactics, but they got some damn good players. Neymar and Oscar might be a bit young for the hopes of the whole nation resting on their shoulders, but their defense is more stable than ever before. David Luiz might be an embarrasment at times, but every time he commits a crazy error up front, Gustavo or Paulinho has already tracked back. Their organization is quite good, even though Japan have done nothing to really threaten up to now.

This is what hulk makes so dangerous. he can stroll the whole game, but he only needs one fast step to cut inside and make a goal out of nothing. this time he was close, but his hit is ferocious

Some of Brazil's fans seem really demanding. Surely the pressure won't help the team!?

Hulk might have a stronger shot than even Juninho

I am glad people in Sao Paulo are more worried about demanding their civil rights than about shit Confederations Cup!

P.S: Brasilia fans are stupid, cant even fill up a 70k stadium (that was supposed to be sold out)...

It would be interesting to see Hulk and Alex shoot at each other to see who dies first.

Seriously, how can they generate such power?!

Great control and nice finish by Paulinho, well done.

Fred has to be the slowest man on the planet. No idea why such an average player is regular starter for Brazil

Italy U21 team has to be one of the most disgraceful team's I've seen. The kind of shit they pulled at end of that match was embarrassing.

What happened?

Japan have been very disappointing tonight. They just didn't get into their system.

DAT ASSIST. Nice goal by Jô.

Deadly counter by Oscar, he needs to be played in the middle.

[kellzfresh 7,229]

Oscar is a boss in brazil

[Slam Dunk 1,442]

Would love to know the source of Oscar's powers. How he's not burned out is beyond me.

A young body can take much strain. Hope he gets an extended holiday. We do not need him in Asia anyway. Surely Schürrle will take a bit weight off Mazacar, but still our preseason will be strenious enough.

but he's so thin... he looks fragile if you ask me and he had been injured once while in Inter - if memory doesn't fail me (it normally does)

Most footballers are thin and look fragile nowadays which makes it really funny when they stand up and play men by fighting each other... anyway there is enough medical care for them and they get millions to stay fit. I know amateur players who have endured greater strain for no money and without medical help.
