Is Brazil U-23 trying to emulate Portugal in the Euro?

Horrible game. I actually feel sorry for Japan. They deserved the 3 points. We better get our act together Wednesday or Nigeria will have a feast.

Brazil men's team: disaster
Brazil women's team: heaven

 

At this moment, I think we won't even win a medal in the Men's tournament, let alone gold. In Women's, a medal is possible.

Canada beats Germany for the first time (in 13 tries) without their two best players ... lol clearly Germany was not playing to win

Wow, coming in I was just hopeful that Canada could tie the Aussies and get to the quarters.  Now they go 3-0, beating the 2nd and 5th ranked teams.  Of course their reward is a meeting with the 3rd ranked team in the first round.  Kind of stupid.

I really dont get why Canada was so happy about that win ... ?

They will have to play France/USA now, Germany on the other hand will play against Sweden/China.

First ever win against the Germans...

[orangeman 2,002]

The Olympics site shows that Germany and Canada are on the same side of the bracket.  So if both were to win their first match, they'd meet again in the semis.  That doesn't make sense to me.  

 

Now go Kiwis!

Congrats, but is that really important? For me a medal would be much more important than a win against Germany ...
