I think that “akansalinkumkwame” has a cristal ball or he is a good Argentine fan that deserves a big hug for his correct forecast.

Argentina 3 – Brazil 0

Well i think Brazil have the upperhand going into the match against Argentina(despite the MESSILESS LIONESS quite on song). Well with Ronaldinho quite on song, I think with his experience he will perform well for Brazil. I’m looking foward to the game, when two former clubmates lockheads. With Messi stating his delight over Eto’s stagnation at the Nou Camp, I think he is not fully concentrating on the upcoming game for his national team, rather putting an eye on the north east club in spain. Once again i give Brazil my vote.
On the otherhand, I cant believe people are placing bets on Belgium. With a stroke of luck, they defeated Italy(I hate those damn Italians). I pray Nigerian coach Sisia includes Peter Odemwingie from the start of the game he has the ability to cause world class defences(Derby County) problems. Let me predict the final match
Nigeria 5-3 Brazil pens
Correct guys ha fa na

luck?
talk about luck
haha
40 degrees where argentina would never work? nice. i hope you don’t watch MLS because you go from west coast, to the east coast. If you know Anything about about climate(not even weather, nor temperature) you know that cali weather vs chitown weather is totally different, yet these teams fight for the same title. oh, by the way, brasil and argentina are neighbors. not like, EXTREME, DIFFERENT OPPOSITE COASTS neighbors, but NEIGHBOR, neighbors. the type where you can walk across the border and say ‘may i borrow some sugar.’ use your wireless, steal a drink, play a scrimmage game against ya, type of neighbors. So if anybody on here ever uses temperature as an excuse to claim ‘Lack of skills, or being comfortable with their skills’ then they’re pretty lame. Even unskilled MLS players(yeah, even reserve players) are used to traveling to different Zones, Places, Coasts, Areas and temperatures to LUCKLY, get some playing time.

Players nowadays are looking for excuses to get out of anything they fuck up with. i know that wearing that badge is way too heavy for a foreigner, or anybody who didn’t grow up worshiping the club, but when you decide to make this GAME much more than a ‘fit around my schedule’ type of thing, then that means you’ve decided to make it a point to prove your skill and compare yourself(regardless of whether you’re a Defender or a Striker) to whoever else is out there, on the market or the league, getting stale or seasoned. Whether you make it count or not, it’s on you. . . but after all sorts of compromising, i think you’re better off committing to either failure or success. I hope you’re not a sore loser . . . good luck!

its an interesting match. brazil have NEVER won the olypmic medal and if they dont win this one, its going to be pretty hard to see them winning one in the near future. argentina can definitely beat brazil, but dunga is an excellent coach with a very lucky team. hernanes is a pretty good player. sobis is okay. brazil team is reasonably good, very lucky against belgium to win with those fake red cards for belgium. FIFA wants brazil to win, its obvious!! i think dunga can be very resourceful and with the level of luck brazil have (AS ALWAYS, little talent and ALL LUCK), brazil is most likely going to win the gold.

in USA94 – il divino has a hamstring injury and costacurta is injured for that match
in 2002- there is NO competition with all major contenders out because of FIFA conspiracy to see korea win the WC. then of course, brazil face an already weak germany further weakened by a suspended ballack!!
in copa 07 – brazil play in about 40 degrees where argentina would never work. such a lucky chance
- in confed 05, brazil play a germany WITHOUT its best player schweinsteiger
- in 1998, the final scoreline should have been 10-0 to france had it not been for the worst strikers on earth in that team
- in olympics 08, brazil has belgian players red carded unbelievably (and 2 of them). what BS. and they still win just 1-0!!!!

BRAZIL = LUCK. they are the MASTERS OF LUCK!!!
