Definitly surprised noone scored a goal. From what i knew they were both good stricking teams. Thought portugal would come out of that match with 3 pts

Halftime score -
BRAZIL - 0 KOREA DPR - 0 Someone answer me this question - is this really Brazil we are watching? Looks like a club side from some forgotten South American country. Apart from some long rangers and deft passes, Brazil are looking like a VERY pale version of the team we have come to love over the years. Impressed with Korea so far, from the limited time they got their space in the match. Expecting some fireworks in the second half from Brazil hopefully. Right now they are looking really, really mediocre.

FINAL SCORE - Match #14 (GROUP G) -
BRAZIL - 2 (Maicon 55') (Elano 72') KOREA DPR - 1 (Ji Yun Nam 89') Brazil - need to improve. A LOT. Fantastic first goal by Maicon from a very extreme angle. Korea - Impressive. Should take a lot of heart from this match.

I think it's Dunga's strategy that's making Brazil playing this kinda 'unusual' samba football. Otherwise like always there are still many talented players in the squad. Nilmar was far more impressive than Kaka who is totally out of form at the moment. Dani Alves also need to be regular in the field from the very beginning of every match from now on.
But the main problem is IMO Brazil needed to win this match without conceding any goal. Cause as it's the Group of Death with teams like Portugal & Ivory Coast & there is a possibility that the final point table may become pretty close of between this 3 favorites. Who knows POR & IC may win against Korea DPR with clean sheet while both have a draw against Brazil?!? And that can put Brazil into real trouble, unless Brazil at least defeat one of them at any cost.

I think it's better to have a moderate start in WC for the Latin American giants...Brazil & Argentina. I hope they will improve in each coming game as the tournament progress.

That may be, but i'm disappointed about the World Cup so far. Too much safety play and lack of creativity up front. Give me a vuvuzela so I can BUUUUUUUH!!! :mad:
