There will be only one dominant team though.

Like your Keeper!

I can't see Mariano's last pics for some reason.... but here's a 'recent' one that I'm sure you recall.

We met (and beat) Argentina in the final of the last two Copa America as well as met and beat Argentina in the final of the last Copa Confederações. I still don't quite comprehend how FIFA has you guys at 1st but there's alot to their system of ranking I don't understand..

Translation: The team that best played in the Copa America died in the final. A cruel 0-3 against Brasil B (basically meaning we played out bench). Resulting in a nightmare the dream of a generation that sought the title but weakened in the last step. Una Lastima!!!

Fucking heartbreaking. This is what caused me to be more rational. Brasil usually plays like shit in the games it doesnt need to win, but steps up the game when its time to win. Whether it be in the World Cup, Copa America, etc. We are the opposite. We are always the favorite, but we fail where it counts. Brasil is the true mark of a champion. They win the games that they need to win.

Damn Mariano, beautiful words bro. Needless to say, that final was a huge shock to me, all Brasilians and the rest of the soccer world for that matter. Argentina played very beautiful soccer throughout that cup while Brasil played like shit. It was a completely different Brasil in that final...

As a child, I couldn't understand Brasil's sub-par performances when it came to certain games, and my father would try to break it down to me. The reality is that Brasilians and most of everybody expect Brasil to be top-notch everytime they step on the field.

[CleanAzzE30z]

Hey man. At some point you have to grow up and realize how stupid it is to have this blind praise. This is a big step for me. ;) Ive had the seleccion in my heart since a baby, but its caused me so much fucking hurt, that I have to rethink everything.



Mariano

But you handle it better. Argentina has the same pressure, but doesnt handle it as well, I think.


FUCK Im sad now. Seeing that picture. I try and push everything to the back of my head. Seeing that picture brings up the heartache.
