hahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaahhahahahahaha..... there is nothing to comment. brasil DESTROYED that sorry argentina's ass. Who is Messi? Who is Tevez? Who is Riquelme? they never won anything with
their national team. argertina will still wait in line for a long time to win an important international champioship. IN YOUR FACE ARGENTINA'S FANS!!! (and also for those retards that said mexico was
better than BRASIL. 3rd place??? that means shit!!!)

Great blog, and thanks for the pictures. You know I didn't see him on TV but I wonder if the fat druggie communist (maradona)was there with his buddy Chavez? LMAO!!!!

Please, wash your mouth before talking shit about Diego Maradona. He was the best ever! He did wrong things after he stopped playing futbol but his contribution for the game was fantastic!

ehhh? Greatest ever??!?!?!? LMAO!! Mr hand of God???? He was good..but to say the greatest you must be smoking crack....and he should have taken a roll like Pele did after he retired and dome more
for the game like a real Great player did. Pele was good on the field and off....thats a real hero!

Ok, can we foccus on the subject? this Maradona x Pele issue makes me sick sometimes. Anyway. Brazil nailed the game, yes! I met with ManoGil on saturday before the game and he told me about oleole
and also said that people get too fanactic sometimes. He said exactly what he posted here: that when Brazil and Argentina play it's something tottaly different. No matter how more prestigious one
team is at the moment the rivalry levels up the game. It was an great game to watch and ManoGil did a great job covering the Copa America. Keep it up my friend.

Hey Ryan... yes, I say what I say because I KNOW this game... I deeply know this game... I will never cross the line and talk about what I don't really understand, I'd rather ask first and then get
to a conclusion. But I love football and I do my best to be precise, honest and respectful when I write about it. ********************************************** Man it was great meeting you. You're a
very cool and smart young man. We will definetly play some soccer once a get my surgery done and recover from it.

Hey for that asshole marcelo mexico is better than brazil, who was the 1st in their group right ahead of brazil? who defeated brazil 2-nil in mexicos 1st game of the tourney? stop talkin shit mexico
is better than brazil

Let Mexico play Brazil now...Remember Mexico have been playing together much much longer then this Brazilian team. Brazil needed time to click. Mexico had the Gold Cup and most the players are the
same from the WC. Brazil had almost 95% new players. Try again Encantado.

Mexico can only beat Brasil when Ronaldinho and Kaka are not playing. DON'T ARGUE WITH ME ON THAT, encantado, YOU WILL GET BURNT! Great blog, manogil, I guess you were right. The better and stronger
team doesn't always win. I would have NEVER thought that Barcelona would lose all trophies this past season. Like I say, for clubs, "Pre-season friendlies will give you an idea of how good or bad
your season will be". It may sound corny, but it's TRUE!

Ok - again - STAY ON SUBJECT! Argentina used their skills but they were no match to the skills AND the use of body by Brazil. They had their players set up great in the field - Brazil knew where to
stay, how to stop Argentina AND how to score to Argentina. This talk about Mexico going against Brazil again... yeah... Make a blog about it and then we discuss there.

Is México better than Brasil???? quaquaqua...don't make me laugh, Encantado. Mexico play CONCAF tournaments and has never won something significantly...Brasil is Brasil and if they have guts, it is
very difficult to be beaten...and I'll not talk about Pele-Maradona issue, since there are nothing to talk about...as I heard here another day, buy an argentine by the price he worths and sell him
for the price he thinks he worths and you'll probably get rich....

I take my hats off to Dunga, Brazil played tough and actually a lot like Rafa's Liverpool....and Brazil has all the fouls to prove it 37 in one game! It's what Brazil needed to do to stop this
Argentinean team. I'm glad Dani Alves got more playing time and Doni has proved himself to me. Dunga has won this with a team that frankly isn't as talented as their oponent but a team with more
heart for sure! He is our best coach since Scolari left.

Yeah, it sucks because I wanted to see Messi lift the trophy, but seeing Ronaldinho's country do it without him and Kaka, is ok with me. lol. CONGRATS BRASIL!

anti madrista, i know brazil with ronaldinho & kaka would beat almost any team im just sayin we beat brazil 2- 0 and they did have robinho with the most goals in the tourney, thats quite an
accomplishment for mexico, a team which in history, has no copa america wins under their belt, whereas brazil has been an amazing force throughout history. im sayin mexico is becoming a much stronger
team than before and they will be a force in the next copa

Brazil has AMAZING talents for every position. The size of the country and the amount of people playing the sport makes it almost IMPOSSIBLE for any other nation in this planet to have as many
talented players as Brazil. They might not always win but in every competition they participate they will be on the TOP FAVORITES FOR THE TITTLE.

That's how I see it. When the Federacion Mexicana de Futbol decided to send its clubs to play the Libertadores Cup it realized how much quality of mexican football increased. A very intelligent
decision. Now I see Mexico as the 3rd. football power in all the Americas. Mexico is not better than Brazil, Mexico is not better than Argentina. Beating Brazil does not mean you are better (Japan
already beat Brazil, Norway did it more than once... does that mean they're better than Brazil?). Mexico played better than Brazil in that game. The team had a better structure, strategy and more
passion that's why they won that first game.

FINALLY!!! Manogil gets it! thanks dude for understanding futbol.

I agree with you, Mano Gil. Mexico is the third football power of America, but it is still far away from Brazil and Argentina...

Not as far as you think. Mexico has shown that they can beat either one, now it's all about consistency.

Don't make me laugh, JLuis...Mexico improved a lot and you should be very happy that Brazil and Argentina are taken your team for serious right now...but Mexico will have to improve a lot to win
something important...and they will have to take a look at USA, in this case its great rival, which is learning how to play and once and while is showing much more football in the last years.

I believe Mexico have improved a lot in the last years (so has the USA) but both nations need to prove that they deserve a spot among the best teams in the world by doing better in a World Cup than
they have done all through the years. Once a team features among the 4 best in the WC they will receive the deserved respect from the rest of the world. (and that exclude teams that appeared among
the 4 best just when they were hosting the competition)

USA needs to prove A HELL of a lot more than Mexico - that is a FACT.

I am not sure that the US has more to prove than Mexico. Mexico still can't beat the US. I believe they have not beat the USA in the last 10 meetings and that is a FACT. I am not saying the USA
deserves any more respect but saying they are that much better than the USA is a joke.

We'll see how that goes when USA pays a visit to Mexico in the Estadio Azteca in September.

I agree with you Luis. That will be a real test for the US. They have not won there in many many years. They have pulled off a few ties including the last match there.

Mexico stinks so every mexican that thinks they are better than Brazil.. well let them dream about it.

What on EARTH are you talking about Carlos??? Mexico does not think they're better than Brazil - Hell, NO ONE is better than Brazil. We just happen to beat them and have been doing so in the past few
games.

There are rumours that Roberto Ayala, for the benefit of Argentine Football, has decided to retire from international competition.

Yeah, i agree with JLuis. Just because France beat Brazil in the WC, doesn't make them better than Brazil.

Back to talkin' futbol and discussing the original post and not the "ALL CAPS" commentaries and Mexico is better, bla bla bla. El futbol es asi... Thats all that needs saying to explain why on
any given Sunday... Brazil...what can be said about Brazil that hasn't been said. They beat Argentina after their own press and fans had already anticipated any type of loss by stating and
restating
loudly that they had sent a B team. Yet, who can argue that any compilation of B players born in Brazil and playing at the front, in the top leagues of Europe, is not an A team overall. Maybe its
not
the top stars but it is not a B team. So they already had the excuse at the ready if Argentina's dominance in the previous five games came across into the finals. ...continued below
