Brazil's U-23 squad

[Ak Maromo]

Brazil I think called up their players for Beijing.

Boss knows already who three players will be with more than 23 years whom it will take to the Olympic Games of Peking. According to the column Sporting View, of the newspaper “ The Globe ”, the technician of the Brazilian selection intends to count on the full-back Juan, of Rome, it average Kaká, of the Milan, and the attacker Robinho, of Really Madrid, in the attempt of conquering the unpublished gold.

With that, Ronaldinho Gaúcho promises without chances to dispute the Olympic Games. The only possibility for the expert of Barcelona is if someone you gave of this three players above 23 years it was suffering some injury or serious injury.

The technician including already would have the team-base in his head: (International) Renan; Rafinha (Schalke 04), Juan (Rome), Breno (Bayern of Munich) and Marcelo (Real Madrid); (?), Lucas (Liverpool), Anderson (Manchester) and Kaká (Milan); Alexandre Pato (Milan) and Robinho (Real Madrid).

A better translation follows:

Dunga knows who will be the three players above 23 years old he will take to the Olympic Games. According to the "O Globo" newspaper, Roma's defender Juan, Milan's midfielder Kaká and Real Madrid's forward Robinho will be the men Dunga will turn to in order to conquer the country's first gold medal in football.

This way, Ronaldinho would be out of the side. The only chance for the Barcelona playmaker would be if one of the three players mentioned above got injured.

The NT manager already knows his starting eleven: Renan (Internacional), Rafinha (Schalke 04), Juan (Roma), Breno (Bayern Munchen), Marcelo (Real Madrid); (?), Lucas (Liverpool), Anderson (Man Utd), Kaká (Milan); Alexandre Pato (Milan), Robinho (Real Madrid).

The only position the manager has any doubts in would be the "first" defensive midfielder. Dunga wants a hard tackling player who is also good covering the full backs. Bambi's Hernanes will be tested next Wednesday, in a friendly against the Republic of Ireland, in Dublin.

Olympic gold is actually of very high importance for Brazil since it's the only thing they've never won, so they take the Olympics very seriously.

Olympics have actually been a showcase for young and upcoming players like Eto. David Suazo, Gilardino. Pepe Cardozo. alot of scouts are gonna be at Beijing especially for the home grown young players they are hopefully to sign.

 

[Bobby]

not just for Brazil, Bobby, everyone who has the chance to be an Olympiad understands that it is the chance to be part of an elite group -- it is a title that is bequeathed with all the history and heritage of ages past ... and as an African who celebrated with both Nigeria and Cameroon, football at Olympics is definitely a must-see, and I'm sure it's a must-do for those who want to share in that honour and glory!

NBC broadcasts the Olympics here and the football has commercials in it . So I don't really watch it.

 

[Help?]

Olympics is the biggest event in the world, but teams sports don't get that much attention there. Winning basketball or soccer in olympics is not the same as World Cup or NBA or Champions League whatever.
