Football at the Summer Olympic Games 2016

The players are different, the scope of the tournament is also very different, so I believe there's not really much to compare other than the teams being Brazil and Germany. So, everybody is celebrating the gold medal for what it is, while the loss to Germany will remain what it is, as well. Very few people, if any, take the 7-1 seriously in Brazil. It has become a huge joke and everybody laughs at it. Here in Brazil we make fun of everything, including ourselves.

Yes very true, the scope of the tournament was very different, but i like how much effort Brazil put into winning this. I really wonder what the german team wouldve looked like if Germany would have hosted this tournament.

By the way: Why did your previous post got deleted, did you insult people from Argentina in some way? :mumble:

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Nah, I only sent greetings to them, but I think someone thought this was offensive enough to get it deleted. Not a big deal, though.

Now, about football, it's funny because I remember that in 2012 not many people cared about the final match against Mexico. Now the football gold medal has become big news all over the place.

Germany has the goal advantage (+21 to +20), and has to play the three weaker teams, so its more likely to qualify.
