WC 2014: Camarões x Brasil, 23 de Junho de 2014 [R]

4-3? Bro, I could barely handle 0-0 or 1-1. 4-3 would be suicidal.

Why not? This isn't the Chile of the past. Our boys are gonna need to play at a top, top form to beat them

 

I'm just imagining my dream scenario. Brasil v. Argentina final, with a game as good as the 1970 semifinal between Germany and Italy. Watching such a game without knowing the outcome would not be pleasant. There would be casualties. But it would be worth it once it was over and you could take in the magnitude of what you'd just seen knowing your team had just won.

 

Drop marcelo? not a good option. Who will be the LB then? Marcelo is one of the best in that position.

 

No way is Marcelo going to be dropped.
Fernandinho I think will sub in for Paulinho.

 

I agree.. i dont see scolari making bold moves this late in the game

 

Fernandinho for Paulinho is a bold move? Really? It's safe and obvious to me. A bold move would be putting Willian or Ramirez in Hulks spot.

 

I think what Kevin was saying is that Fernandinho will come on precisely because it is a safe and obvious move, whereas Felipao won't be making any bold moves like Willian (or dropping Marcelo, which would be boldly stupid). But I wouldn't consider Ramirez in Hulk's spot a bold move either. It would be a defensive move, and one Felipao has already tried against Mexico.
