Ronaldinho is not in form. He's not the same player he used to be.

He's still a great player, but past his peak in his career. Brasil has an abundance of younger and more capable talent to include on theirnational team.

Typical... you know how people are, they never want to give credit to something they didn't believe in or predict.
USA was definitely the better side yesterday... they don't have more talent, and probably don't beat Spain more than 1 in 5 tries.. but it doesn't matter, they were better yesterday and deserved the win.
Really proud of our guys... we looked like a legitimate squad in two straight games now, not having to rely on PK's to score our goals and playing really inspired ball out there. Loved it..

^ England's next 'International' is in August against the Dutch, but I think its just a friendly...
In this tournament, UEFA is represented by Spain since they won the Euro 2008...

If RSA wins this game, it's Spain vs. Brazil in the consolation game. Of course, that's when everyone will talk about that being the REAL FINAL.
anyway, Brazil look flat. Robinho is getting little supply of the ball. We'll see what happens from here.

South Africa is playing well. Much better in the second half. 20 mins left. There has to be a goal scored
