    Welcome to "Fielzão" - WC 2014 Opening Stadium

    Bringing this discussion about public money spending down to the mudslinging of SPFC v Corinthians partisanship is not really useful. We are talking about real-world politics here, not football politics. It is a great thing that the stadium will be funded by mostly private capital (thus saving...

    Welcome to "Fielzão" - WC 2014 Opening Stadium

    Even though I, as a sãopaulino, am still quite pissed about the Morumbi fiasco, reason leaves me no option but to find this may prove to be an adequate solution in logistical terms (assuming, of course, that it will be possible to properly finish the stadium in a bit more than three years and...

    2010 FIFA World Cup Final: Netherlands v. Spain [P/R]

    I tend to side with Robbie in that the referee did a decent job considering the mess of a game he got thrown into. As Shifty mentioned, it was very unlikely that Webb would give someone a red early on; and he would be crucified just as much as he is being now - if not more - had he done it. In...

    New Kits 2010/2011

    The Tottenham home and away kits are excellent, simple and classy; and as a bonus the sponsor fits perfectly. Colour mismatches are bad... At São Paulo FC we had LG for many years as main sponsor and it looked very cool with our kit design. Now we have to do with such mismatching ugliness -...

    2010 fifa world cup south africa awards

    Best young player shortlist: Muller, Giovani dos Santos and Andre Ayew. Needless to say, it will be nonsense if Muller doesn't take it. On the other two, they had to pick someone from Ghana I suppose - nevertheless, A. Ayew was beyond doubt the best Ghanaian anyway (far better than Gyan) and...

    Killer

    I can't help but draw a parallel with John Terry's affairs. Around the same time frame he lost England's armband "merely" due to sleeping the wife of a team mate the captain of Brazil's biggest club got away with his public image essentially unaffected after his women-beating declarations...

    Leo to Brazil

    Maybe it's just me not remembering what happened... but certainly Leonardo was a starter in WC '98?

    Leo to Brazil

    It may sound foolish but I actually think Leonardo's negative experiences at Milan might prove a positive thing. Little experience, yes, but having a tough ride at the highest level should count for something - specially for a highly intelligent guy like him. As for other names, Ricardo...

    Leo to Brazil

    But then who? From the experienced managers the only uncontentious name I can think of is Scolari, and chances are that won't happen (at least not in the immediate future)

    Leo to Brazil

    All that I know is that Leonardo seems far better than any of the old farts that have been suggested as alternatives. (Okay, I rather like Scolari but I don't think it would work for a second time - and he is supposed to go to Palmeiras anyway...)

    WC 2010 QF: Uruguay vs Ghana [P + R]

    These vagaries are what keeps me away from caring about video review and extra referees. Scoring opportunities in football are very rare when compared to most other sports, and too many things can go horribly wrong and create an "unfair" result. Going to great lengths to avoid a tiny fraction of...

    WC 2010 SF: Uruguay vs Netherlands [P + R]

    First, a bit of history: M5YLG57a2GE Logic says Netherlands will march on to the finals. That failing to happen would involve Diego Forlán playing the match of his life, which would certainly be great to watch.

    WC 2010 QF: Paraguay vs Spain [P + R]

    The blame for boredom is 50/50. Chile-Spain certainly wasn't boring; Germany-Paraguay likely wouldn't either. It's not really Spain's fault; it's just that their "carousel passing" sometimes just doesn't cut it, not unlike Barcelona in that respect. In any case, Paraguay is too much of a...

    WC 2010 QF: Uruguay vs Ghana [P + R]

    FIFA chose not to go politically correct by extending the ban of Suarez on the grounds of overzealous bragging, and so he will be able to play the final/3rd place match. Not that I would have minded either way, but surprising nevertheless. Still about the incident, a piece of hysterically bad...

    WC 2010 QF: Paraguay vs Spain [P + R]

    The offside decision was correct. Cardozo clearly attempted the header; even if he didn't hit the ball it was enough to rule out the goal.

    (Loose translation from the second video in this page) Journalist: "Do you think people will be more harsh with you than with the others due to the sending off? Melo: "No. It is different to be sent off for punching another player, or spitting in someone else's face than for a normal play...
