/ 135 days agoWhen was the last time Brazil was this poor?

It was Endrick who would take on the number nine spot for Brazil in their vital match against Uruguay.

For years, the Copa America has ignored extra time, instead heading straight to penalties if games in the quarterfinals or semifinals are tied after 90 minutes. On one hand, it is exciting.

Argentina didn't play like the 2024 Copa America champions tonight — they barely played like winners of their quarterfinal match against Ecuador. Despite the seemingly positive result, Argentina are lucky to escape with their 1-0 draw. They were outdueled, outpassed, outmatched in intensity, technique, and more. But, of course, it would be a typical Scaloni […]

Did Ronaldinho have a point? Ridiculous as it sounds — Ronaldinho will definitely celebrate with the Selecao if Brazil wins this year's Copa America — Brazil has looked surprisingly mediocre over their past three games, and they look nothing like the world-conquering teams of the early 2000s. Despite dominating Costa Rica in both possession and […]
