You had more than one documented case. Just look above. Fact is Nigeria and other African countries go through various age tests, hence they are now clean. Claiming otherwise would make you a scientific ignoramus. Meanwhile Brasil cheats like they always did. There is a reason that by and large Brasilian football careers end much earlier than that of Europeans...
Only documented issues were rooted out in months. The 27-year-old midfielder said he'd altered his age 10 years ago so he could play in an amateur tournament. "They discovered the fraud within a couple of months and it almost ended my career." Souza wasn't punished because he was not yet playing professionally at the time. How are you going to say our U-17 looked older than 17? You're probably going to tell me Joseph Minala is as old as he says.
In other words, isolated incidents that rarely occur involving one player. Nigeria has multiple players in one squad trying to do this at official international tournaments. It'll never be as bad of a problem in Brazil as it was in Nigeria.
Me, my wife and my daughter will see the game versus USA in Belém. We are gonna see in person G. Jesus, Valdívia, Gabigol, Felipe Anderson and others. They have been doing fine and Micale will reveal who is gonna star today. From our world cup 2015 u-20 team we have G. Jesus, Lucão, Marlon and Jorge. Here some details about every player (in portuguese): http://globoesporte.globo.com/futeb...son-scarpa-e-rodrigo-caio-chegam-em-alta.html
No. they will play at Mangueirão. Curuzu (Paysandu arena is small). My wife has a lot of relatives over there and my daughter likes too see G. Jesus in action. Me too.
Our u23 . Micale set up our team for today's game against the United States without Kenedy and with a very offensive trio with Gabigol , G. Jesus and Luan . Our team: Ederson ( Benfica - POR) ; Fabinho ( Monaco -FRA ) , Rodrigo Ely (Milan -ITA ) , Doria ( Granada- ESP), Wendell ( Bayer Leverkusen - ALE) ; Lucas Silva ( Olympique Marseille -FRA ) , Fred (Shakhtar Dontesk - UCR ) and Felipe Anderson ( Lazio -ITA ) ; Gabriel Jesus , Luan and Gabigol . We do not know what will happen in the game, but for sure will be a team that will play in the attack. Only recently I came to pay attention to Luan from Grêmio . The Mundo Deportivo newspaper of Spain made a report considering him a new Neymar ( overkill for me) that matters to Real Madr. that's Luan in action: http://www.mundodeportivo.com/opini...nuevo-neymar-que-interesa-al-real-madrid.html
Idk how you haven't heard of Luan before this , he has been starting for gremio for 2 years now. The game will be on fox sports 1 at 5.55
It's all well and good to have interchange with your front 3 but Gabigol being on the left is extremly pointless. He needs to be in the middle working John brooks.
Luan showing why I've been hesitant to hop on his bandwagon. When there's space and when he's on the counter he's very nice but when the game slows down and when the defense gets full numbers back it becomes a "half court offense" situation for lack of better phrase, he struggles.
Everything positive is coming from the left side This setup by Michale is incredibly offensive. Anderson isn't a 10. Wow, Fred. Good work by Gabriel Jesus Goal by Gabriel. Nice through all by Lucas Silva
My only issue with Gabriel Jesus is his crossing or his lack of wanting to cross , depends on the situation
I agree, Gabriel should stay with the U-23 squad until after the Olympics is done IMO. I also would like to see the u23 squad used in the 16 Copa
