Brazil will win 3-1. Korea will score first from a bad Luisao backpass. Brazil will score late in the game and open the floodgates with 3 goals.
You have some balls to predict that either Lucio or Juan will be hurt in the first game and substituted bu Luisao who in turn will give a backpass that will turn into a goal. You might as well play the lottery ...
Just trying to spice things up. I dislike Luisao because he plays for Benfica and would love to him screw up vs the koreans
Say NO to DRUGS! That is to all those who think N K is going to be a challenge to Brazil or any other team in that group for that matter. Brazil's toughest battle will be Ivory Coast & Portugal, in that order. I predict that Brazil will win the group. The knockout stage will be very interesting!
Jong Tae-Se says N Korea can beat Brazil: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/fo...rea/7812942/Jong-gunning-for-early-upset.html
NK's midfielder, Kim Yong-Jun, is suspended for the game. And apparently, 2 assistant coaches are also suspended. One for 1 match. The other for 2.
I'm looking forward to all the NKorea matches cause i think it will be interesting to watch how they perform against stronger opponents. The scoreline will be Brazil 3-6 North korea.
I think it will end 4-0. North Korea are lucky to play Brazil first because seeded teams are always a little subdued in the opening games and probably won't ever get out of second gear. It will probably be similar to Brazil v China in 2002. Brazil will got 3-0 up halftime but the second half won't produce too many goals me thinks....
I saw that too. Does Kim Jong Il hand out hallucinogens to the soccer team? I hope they can keep it close and by some miracle of miracles if they can manage a tie.
I wish the best to my poor fellows from North but to win Brazil and survive this group is harder than getting a Miss Universe girlfriend.
A lot of posters in the Brazil forum are calling 3x0, including me. Basically I expect us to score in the first half and just run the game like a training exercise if things are going our way. I don't expect any sort of blowout. Also, keep in mind Brazil's last opening game blowout was 1970, other than that we either tie or win by a goal (the exception being 1994 where we won our opener 2x0).
I hope they tint the Italian players a little brown too because it would be hard how each member of the team is long haired, white European looking dudes .
