Pure luck Crap for 74 minutes and then Alan Kardec got sent a message from up high and put in a beauty of a cross for Borges. Then Borges returned the favor by setting up Kardec, and scored soon after. Basically a two man show in the last 15 minutes. Neymar and Ganso did nothing.

Inter kinda felt too sure about the victory and relaxed tbh. That helped a lot.

Maybe Ganso didn't want to get injured for his Chelsea medical in the morning :O

Rei, fuck your sig. You don't say 'Borges', you say 'goles'

Anyways, Andre Lima scored three yesterday.

I'll go with Gorges/Bolges


And yeah, saw Andre Lima's face on Globoesporte's front page. Had to look a couple of times to make sure I was sane.

Copa Roca squad being named today. Do you think Mano will include the big guns, i.e. Neymar, Dinho et al? Probably will tbh, just to bump up his approval ratings. I was thinking of this starting XI:

Marcelo Lomba; Jonas, Rhodolfo, Dede, Bruno Cortes; Paulinho, Casemiro; Oscar, Elkeson; Borges, Neymar.

Mano Menezes will for sure do anything to high up his rep, I would also like him call up Willians or Renato from Flamengo. But this trophy is win or lose it's nothing great. Line up you put is really good, maybe put Mario Fernandes at RB.

Also Cruzeiro v Fluminense today.


Montillo will destroy.

Leandro Damião scored a hattrick in a 3x0 win vs. Palmeiras.

Coritiba gave Botafogo a 5x0 hammering.

You are a hoe! none of what you stated was as big as Gremio beating Sao Paulo

Pretty much their whole team. Sao Paulo right?

Yeah. They always seem to have some young studs on FIFA. I take it the trend is continuing...

New leaders as Vasco smashed Gremio 4-0 to go top of the table. They're going to stay there until the next round because Corinthians will be losing to Santos tomorrow.

Sao Paulo smashed Ceara by the same scoreline.

Chora Corinthians!



Your tears sustain me.

GOLges (Borges) scores again for Santos.

Flamengo should be losing against America right now, but Kempes did a F. Torres.

EDIT: FLA 0x1 AME Kempes scores from PK.

Funny as how Kempes almost got distracted with Airton trying to pull down his socks before he took the PK.

Updated table. It's almost squeaky bum time.

Musa do Brasileirao is on soon.

Spoiler:

This year's edition of Brazil: The Talent Factory. They usually had a video to go along with the article but it seems like they left it off this year.

There are some he left out that are pretty big, but I guess he wanted to go with lesser known players. Guys like Danilo, Mario Fernandes, and Romulo should have been shoe-ins.

why is santos so shit?

It's a hard thing to explain definitively since there are so many factors involved, but I'll try.

1. Primarily, a shit defense. Reasons for this include tiredness (both mental and physical),and the fact that they can't sit back in numbers anymore.

2. Looking forward to the Club World Club.

3. Lots of injuries, and missing players because of international duty.

Three big games starting in 15.

Santos-Palmeiras
Flamengo-Fluminese
Internacional - Vasco

League table update



Other notables

Borges scored his 21st goal of the season.

Special Update



It's time for the run-in! Just 8 games left!

Top scorers



So, who's going to win the title? Well, as you can see from the table, it's a hard thing to predict. Brazil is the most competitive league in the world and the lead will exchange itself a number of times in these last eight games. As I have to say is that I'll be happy once Corinthians don't win.

Unlike previous seasons, the calendar has been set up that the last matchday will feature big derbies, which will be interesting.

Cuttign edge analysis there.

Not very happy with Sao Paoloin 6th, wtf is going on?

Is there another team in South America called Santos? Cuz I saw Santos vs. whoever on the CONCACAF champs league and I tuned in to see ma boy Neymar but he wasn't out there. The team didn't seem Brazilian....

Santos Laguna from Mexico.

Sao Paulo screwed themselves over by appointing Adilson Batista 11 games ago. I think they only won one of those games. He's had some success in the past but he's really a poor coach.
