I think the game actually should have ended up a draw.

Except for a few chances the Scots never really threatened the Brazilians but the Brazilians likewise though they had the opportunities were just not hungry enough.

Overall I think the Scots held their own and the Brazilians played well below their potential.

They let the game come to them instead of taking the game to the Scots.

Ironic the same guy who scored Brazil's goal was also responsible for giving away the penalty. I thought Bebeto played poorly...

So does the Brazilian player who tried to loft the ball over the goalkeeper's head get credit for the 2nd goal?

BTW did anyone see the US play Scotland a few weeks ago. True it was in hot weather but heck the US played the Scots much more agressively and dominated the Scots much more than the Brazilians did.

O yeah and Ronaldo and #10 (Riv...) were just awesome..

NOR and Mor. should be a fabulous game.

Tough to call - rationality tells me it might end up a 2-2 draw but intuitively I think Morocco may just pull off the 'upset' - regardless this should be a GREEEAAATTT game and so should NOR./BRZ. and Mor./BRZ. It is not going to be as easy as it was for Brazil against these 2 as it was against the Scots. But Brazil will likely play with much more passion!

Isn't life grand??? <GGGG>
