This is my prediction:

Milan vs Roma
Will qualify > Milan
Milan have won their last few matches against Roma and I don't think it will be any different, they look better and more prepared to reach a semi-final, not to mention the fact that they have more tradition and are used to European competitions

That's why when two teams from the same country it will be easy for us to know who is the team that has a greater chance of winning, because so far we also don't see any difference when the two teams meet in the league or in the Europa League, just like you, I also think if Ac Milan will be able to overcome Roma both home and away later because even though they compete in Europa League matches but still will It feels like a Serie A match later, at the moment Ac Milan is a team that is quite experienced both in the league and European competitions so maybe they are better prepared to look at the quarter-final match than Roma at the moment, besides that I think in terms of quality of players of course Milan is far superior to Roma who are currently starting to rise in the league.

We admit that Roma's current performance has indeed improved a lot in the league, but so far to face a team as big and strong as Milan of course Roma will need luck to win, now we can see how the consistency possessed by Milan in the league that even they managed to make Juventus threatened in serie A standing , as well as the head to head between Milan and Roma so far,  Isn't Milan far superior to Roma so surely Milan will be favorites in the Europa League quarterfinals later.

I agree with you that Milan is more superior than Roma, and that is the same reason why I believe that Milan is the favorite in this match. I will say the match will end up the way it use to end in Seria A, which the string side will win, because these two clubs are from the same league so they are used to playing one another, and they know who is the superior to the other.

Assuming they are from different leagues, then it might be that one will not be able to predict the game right. Roma will not be able to win Milan and qualify to the semifinals, because they don't have the players to do the job. Milan has slowly remained consistent which took them to the second position on their league, and that shows that they are in form.

Real Madrid was lucky enoght to be in fight for the tittle against Girona and not against the big teams like Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, but now they are gonna need to save players for the Champions League matches against Manchester CIty which is way more important than the domestic games right now. Lets see how much points they drop in this run.
What are you saying here? Madrid are lucky in the competition because they only face Girona and not a big club like Barcelona? What kind of ridiculous thinking is this lol.

That doesn't mean Madrid are lucky but indeed Barcelona don't have the same strength to compete in La Liga because of their poor form at the start of the season and that doesn't mean it's lucky for Madrid because after all the game is the same it's just performance that makes the difference and it's the inability of other clubs in La Liga not Madrid's luck.

We know that this season until now Madrid is still the most productive and most consistent club until now so seeing conditions like this we must realize that the difference is very pronounced for La Liga but this is not a fortune for 1 club because competition is based on performance and if the club cannot make its performance good do not expect to be able to be and compete for trophies.
Where was Barcelona when Real Madrid and Girona was on the title race for 2 months or more. Barcelona just picked form, and that does not mean that anyone should start comparing the with Real Madrid that has being in form since the beginning of this season till date. I guess @Volgastallion just want to hype Barcelona when they have already reached their limit.

Real Madrid playing in the champions league will not change anything in their performance, and does not mean that they are ready to drop point for anyone, especially now that Barcelona is on the second position. They will always be in their best performance to see that they don't drop points no matter if the worse happen to the players.

Nepotism and tribalism has led to bad leadership and corrupt government, and still the citizens will not learn from their mistakes because they feel that it is better for someone that they know to be in power even though he is incompetent. Forgetting the damage that such decisions actions will do to the people and the economy of the country.

In my country, I must say that they citizens have understood that they are the ones to vote out bad government, but the Independent Electoral body is the one kills the meaning of democracy in the country. This is because after collecting bribe, he announces the wrong person as the winner of the election, and put the whole country is a mess and the economy in a very bad shape. That body should be dissolved if my country needs a leader of their choice to be in power.

~snip~
Real Madrid has a lot of good experience in the Champions League, even though they were beaten by Manchester City last season, but now it is their turn to avenge that defeat in the next match and they can dominate the Champions League title again.
Even I hope it is like this. But Madrid seems a little difficult. Remember until this phase Man City were very strong. They haven't lost since a group stage match. So Ancelotti has to learn from the game and how to switch off some key players like Foden, Haaland, De Bruyne. Because when I see Madrid playing with teams with good possession, Madrid always find it difficult to improve.
Reflecting on the last match then we know how Madrid's midfield lost badly to Manchester City because they were struggling to keep up with the performance shown by Manchester City especially when at the Etihad but now this could be another situation where Madrid can take revenge for what happened in the previous season.

Indeed, in terms of the current game Manchester City and Madrid are still balanced but it depends on the 90 minutes of the match later whether or not Madrid is finally able to provide greater resistance to Manchester City, especially for midfield problems because this is a central sector that must be owned in a match especially Madrid must know that they last season when they lost in midfield then it was over for them and Madrid must try to make a clear balance on this matter because if in the end they cannot do much in midfield as before then it is certain that Madrid will continue to struggle in the end when facing Manchester City this season.

I believe that Ancelotti must have learnt from his previous mistake, that he needs to make sure that his team is in control of the midfield this time. I also will love it if Real Madrid can use this season to whip back Manchester city ass in revenge of last season, but it is just too early for that challenge.

It is going to be a difficult match for the both teams because they know the quality of each other, since they have recently become rivals in the Champions League. The two club is balanced and I believe that both of them will stay focus more on that match, because none of them will be planning on losing the quarter finals. The strongest and most lucky will qualify to the semifinals. Who knows if the winner of the match will also be the champion league winner this season.

We have been seeing improvements in Barcelona for a few weeks. I do not expect them to beat Atletico Madrid so easily, but they were very good and did not play a great match. An important moment in the match was when Xavi was suspended due to his objections. This was an important moment.
So far, in La Liga, Barcelona's performance is incresing, satisfactory enough. It may not be that easy, but finally, Xavi is able to bring Barcelona's strength back after previously experiencing a quite disappointing downturn in performance.

At least, now, they have reclaimed second place from Girona. Although it is quite impossible to take over Real Madrid's position.

Barcelona's victory over Atletico Madrid was also a very proud result. especially since this is an away match for them. So it can be seen that Barcelona is really ready for their match against Atletico Madrid. This was a very satisfying victory, not only 1 goal but also 3 goals to make Atletico Madrid really embarrassed and disappointed. This is very sufficient for that.
Barcelona have become very consistent currently, and they were able to be on the second position behind Real Madrid and that is not bad, unlike assuming they finished third. I already have known that Girona will not be able to finish the league on the second position, after when I saw that they are using only just a point to be ahead of Barcelona.

The reason is because, if you look at Girona current performance, it is not as consistent as that of Barcelona, and Barcelona is more used to either being the first of the second to finish the league. However, I don't think that anyone should start thinking that it will be possible for Barcelona to win the league, because Real Madrid would not allow that happen. The defeat today kept Atletico on the 5th position for the Europa cup next season, if they are not able to fight back and take the fourth position from Atletico Bilbao

This is bad for a superstar like him. He should be able to gamble responsible, and shouldn't gamble when he cannot afford it. This shows that he is already addicted to gambling for him to owe such huge amount of delt in that casino. However, the casino were suppose to not allow him to gamble without funds but because they have a deal,, he is given the access to gamble whenever he likes without funds, because they know that he is capable of paying off his debts.

Let no one allow his addiction to control him to the extend of borrowing money or getting loans from bank to gamble, because you might not be able to pay it back. Whenever, you see that you have started thinking of gambling when you don't have any money or doing so abnormal things so that you can gamble. It is better that you go on a break, because it is a sign of addiction. You will not be successful if you are addicted, that is why you need to gamble responsible.

A lot of funny things that was done in high school but I wouldn't like to mention them. I did the crazy thing when I was much younger, I was sent on an errand by my mom before she left the house for shopping. On my way to get the stuffs, I came across my friend, and we decided to go gamble on play station Konami soccer game.


We started gambling on little amount though, a. D we were enjoying the fun to the extend that I forget that I was suppose to get those stuffs for my mom. The funny thing is that we gambled till it was dark. It was when I lost all the funds on me that I remembered that I was sent on an errand, and when I came out from the place it was night, I got confused and went back home because the person I need those stuffs from must have closed for the day.

1228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 17, 2024, 07:24:28 PM
I think the best match of the day in Italian Serie A will be between Inter and Napoli. This season Napoli are far from last season's performance. But they have the same squad. Osimhen, Kvaratshelia, Zieliński and Natan are still there. They are far from the top of the league this season but they still have a good squad. Also, together with Francesco Calzona they haven't lost in 5 games. On the other hand, Inter were eliminated from the Champions League during the week. I think they will focus more on the league now. Inter will undoubtedly have an advantage as they are the home team.


The upcoming match between Napoli and Inter Milan doesn't seem like an easy one for either team. Napoli hasn't been performing well since the start of the season, but lately, there are signs of improvement in their game. On the other hand, Inter Milan has been consistently strong, showcasing impressive performances. Considering these factors, it's anticipated that the match will be fiercely contested. Despite the tough challenge, if I have to pick a favorite, it would be Inter Milan.Their recent exclusion from the Champions League might fuel their determination to secure victories in other competitions. With their strong squad and motivation to bounce back, I believe Inter Milan will strive to find a way to emerge victorious in this match against Napoli.
I don't think that it will be a tough match for Inter because they have the quality to win the match. They have shown a high level of consistency since the beginning of this season till date in Seria A. I think that they will not take this match likely with Napoli, due to the defeat that they had in the Champions League. They might choose to use this match against Napoli to console themselves.

Napoli should be the one that the match will be tough for them, but if Napoli can be able to bring back that their outstanding performance that they had last season, they will be able to withstand the pressure from Inter and if possible draw or win the match. Why I said the is that who knows if Inter lost in UCL, will attract more losses, but that is UCL, and not Seria A.

Manchester united 1-0 Liverpool 30 minutes
The tide was turning now that Manchester had taken the lead but it was their backs against the wall as Liverpool didnt want to lose the momentum of any of their attacks . The end of the first half became a tricky situation for Manchester United as their focus broke down and it was put to good use by Liverpool who managed to score 2 goals in just 3 minutes.
Now the match is still quite long but Liverpool are still strong in terms of dominance but it cannot be denied that some of Manchester United attacks are also still quite good until now only by looking at the current probabilities its likely that Liverpool will win again and advance to the next round if Manchester United do not change their scheme .
Manchester United must be more courageous in the remaining time now because after all it is the only way they can change the current situation even though they are still very good because they can compensate for Liverpool's attacks, especially in terms of opportunities but they must be able to try more because they are still behind at this time.

It's a shameful slow reaction from onana caused by this guy was unable in blocking elliot's shoot. The ball has deflected but it's not so fast. Finally, Ashford made the third goal that saved United from a loss against Liverpool. The match is still continue and we are almost going to the end of ET.
Rashford has been doing it right by perfectly executing the ball after his team mates intercept liverpool's backpass. Manchester united can win this game soon as long as onana will be performing so well in the penalty. 1 minutes remaining before the penalty and everything is still doing fine.
Manchester United and Liverpool are trying to use everything to ensure their clubs can qualify for the semi-final, following Chelsea, which has been winning the game against Leicester City. tominay was missing the golden chances.
Last minute GOAL FROM RASHFORD!!!!!!!! WHAT A PLAYERRRRRR.... This guy is so amazing and liverpool lose. People who overproud with liverpool must see this how manchester united is far stronger compared to the liverpool.
There must be some create excuses for the lose of liverpool. This the red devil is cooking now. Amazing rashford and what a hero.

The match became more competitive in extra time. And finally Manchester United won the match 4-3. United's players performed brilliantly in extra time.

Elliott's goal in the 105th minute gave Liverpool a 3-2 lead. But just 7 minutes later, Rashford's goal equalized the match. I thought the match would probably end in a penalty shootout. But Manchester United were very lucky. AmadtDiallo's goal at the very last moment won Manchester United 4-3. After a long time we have seen such a great performance from Manchester United players.
This is a great victory from Manchester united after a long time. This is the first time that they have fought hard without giving up defeat, and win the match. It will be a shock for Liverpool as they are out of the competition, while Manchester united advance to the semifinals. I must say that the extra time was in their favor, because they played better than Liverpool in the last 30 minutes

I am happy that after many chances that was not utilized by Rashford, he finally scored and that goal was needed at that very time. Rashford was supposed to have end the match in the last minute of the 90mins before he lost that great chance. A lucky goal took United to the next round of the competition. The deserve to also compete for a trophy this season.

After united played an amazing ball in the few minutes of the game showing some great thrilling performance it was so surprising how Liverpool had to come from behind within a blink of an eye to get an equalizer and in a flash leading the game before half time. it was so electrifying and exciting to see this Klopp side pull such astounding results within a no time. The second half would be really dangerous for Manchester united as Liverpool would come in with a  much striking confident to score more goals and take a win back home.
The start of the match was good for Manchester United, an early goal and they were able to hold out until the very end of the first half, but they could not hold out for several minutes and received two goals just before the break. The second half was under pressure from Liverpool, but at the very end of the match Antony was able to equalize the score. To be honest, I didn’t expect that Manchester United would be able to change anything in this match, I was more expecting another goal from Liverpool, than from Manchester United. There are a few minutes left until the end of the match.
You are right mate, Manchester united was able to equalize the goal on the 83rd minutes to balance the scoreline. Now the match is getting more tensed as if there is no winner at the end of 90mins there will be an extra time of 30 minutes. Anthony was able to come from the bench to find the back of the net.

Manchester united is getting more serious as if they are ready to win the match and qualify to the semifinals but wl that be possible. United is mounting pressure on Liverpool 18 yard box. Unfortunately, Rashfors was unable to concert his last chance to a goal in a one-on-one with the goalkeeper.

Extra time break.

Today Liverpool and Man city will play the matches where both teams will win the match and in this case Liverpool will move to the 1st position while Man City will be in the 2nd position with 1 point difference.  Man City are almost always better so they have more chances to win the trophy.  Some teams in the Premier League can play better than Man City at times, but cannot maintain their performance stably.  So always Man City is considered as a strong team
I don't know what match you mean, because what I saw today is that Liverpool will face their arch rival Manchester United in the FA Cup match in the Quarter Finals session. Yesterday Manchester City also won the match in the FA Cup which was also followed by Chelsea today who just finished winning the match at Stamford Bridge when they hosted Leicester City. So I don't understand why you are talking about rankings with a difference of one point, even though many matches in the Premier League have been postponed.
Manchester united has taken the lead early by scoring an early goal on the 10th minutes by MacTomminay. Whenever United scores first against a big team in the early minutes of the match, I don't use to have confidence in them.

It is 31st, and it is still 1-0. Liverpool is taking everything calm but the are waiting for the right time to strike, as they are not happy as they have not find the back of the post yet. It seems that United football is somehow different today, because their performance in this first half is encouraging.

I think that trying to create time for your gambling activities, depriving you from doing the needful at that moment means that you are getting addicted to gambling, and you are gambling to make profit, and not for fun. This is why you prefer to gamble in the night, and dose in the office the next day, forgetting that your work that gives you the money you use to gamble, is at stake too.

If we believe that gambling is a means of entertainment, then we should gamble at our time reserved for it, so that we can have all the fun without affecting us tomorrow. It is addiction that will make you forget about the right things to do at the right time, because you want to double your money all the time, but the funny part is that you will always run at loss.

The higher the market cap of a coin, the lower the volatility, and the lower the market cap of a coin the higher the volatility. This is the reason why you can see those shitcoins do have 100x profit, and 1000x profit because they have low market cap, and this is why it is not advisable to invest on new coins because they can crash to zero due to the pump and dump scheme.

The cryptocurrency community is expanding, and that is why we are having more people going into trading for a means to make profit, but that would not affect the volatility of the coin. @Oshosondy gave a good example using gold. Trading has never being easy before and now, but with some new trading tools, if you understand how to use them, you can make it easier for you.

It's an away game for getafe and im sure the club will be consistently losing against girona soon. I don't trust getafe since it was awlasy losing against other club. The consistency of getafe doubting me to pick it. Even though the game is happening away for girona but i would pick it rather than getafe.
Picking girona is giving us more guaranteee to win the bet rather than getafe and it's very crazy to say that if girona is likely owning the game soon. I consider that the bad performance from getafe as a thing that will prevent it to win the game. Girona is slowly back again to the what it used to be.
I would like to call that BTTS to happen. Girona is still performing quite consistent till now but the posible outcomes to bet on this match is girona win or btts. These options are best for now consider girona was also very often in scoring against its opponents on la liga.

Im not doubting the competence of girona to beat getafe but the game is likely ending with narrow score. There will be no big gap to happen in this match and im really sure about this. it's caused by girona is back again to the its peak performance.
To be fair, winning against getafe will keep girona's position to stay at the top place and this is also helping the club to secure a spot in UCL which was also making it to get additional funds in next season if girona will play in UCL.

https://www.sofascore.com/id/girona-fc-getafe/jhbsoKj#tab:details

What I said came true and now Getafe beat Girona by a narrow score.
If you say that Getafe is inconsistent and makes you doubt, it seems that Girona also has poor consistency and when you believe in Girona more, it seems that you misunderstand Girona current condition which has really returned to its original form with poor performance.
I have said that Getafe will win the match and this is because Girona always has difficulty scoring against Getafe as I said before and now you can see how bad Girona is but not Getafe.
I think if you bet on BTTS you will lose because the result is very satisfying for me who bet on Getafe winning.

Actually, Girona could have held this match for a draw but you can see for yourself how Artem Dovbyk failed to score several times, there were always very good opportunities but he failed to score and this is the bad thing about Girona who have lost their successful period this season.
Girona couldn't equalize the goal, despite the opportunities that they had to equalize the game. They have failed to maintain their second position y losing all three points today to Getafe. It is possible that Barcelona will be able to win their match tomorrow to go up from the third position to second.

Barcelona match is quite a difficult one because they are playing against Atletico Madrid at Civitas Metropolitan Stadium, Madrid. We all know that Atletico is always strong when playing at home and they don't like to be defeated. If the match ends in a draw, then goal aggregate would be used to determine is Girona remains on the second position or not. Girona is on 25 goals, while Barcelona is on 23 goals.

We have Arsenal in another title race. After being unsuccessful in the one in the previous season they are trying for it again. I must admit that they are in a really great shape recently as well. They have been winning for 8 weeks in a row. This is really a huge form they have had so far. However how long can they go on like this?

I remember a similar scenario from the previous season. They lost three points in really unexpected games and lost their chance. Now they have two opponents in the race. I see Liverpool and Manchester City's chance more than them honestly.  Sad
Yea, from previous season shows that Arsenal should not be trusted on their consistency, because if there is a little injury on any of the first 11 players it might become a big problem for the team. This is why no one knows for how long will they be able to maintain their consistency to the end of the end of the season.

Like uiu said Liverpool and Manchester city is still the two clubs that people are looking up to no matter that Arsenal is on the first position. Manchester city against Arsenal match is what will determine if Arsenal will be able to continue to be on the top of the league. A very tight corner for both three rivals.
1237  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 16, 2024, 07:01:47 PM
What Italian teams fearing right now is that Inter was already great, and Milan hoped that if UCL kept going for a while, maybe Inter would get tired and give up the league and Milan may get close, which would be very difficult, almost impossible but at least a small chance. Now that they are done, it's clear that they will win the league, there is no reason to lose any games now, they may end up going all the way to the end without a loss.

They may lose here and there too, but the difference is big enough that they will not care about it. I hope that things all go well for Inter and Milan and Juventus, because we really missed these three teams at UCL, they could do very well there if they all spend good amount on the summer transfers.
Inter Milan are already so far ahead in points that it is impossible for another team to catch up again, mathematically it is still possible but we also have to be realistic when looking at Inter Milan's strength this season, they are very strong and consistent but unfortunately they are not lucky in UCL stage.
In the remaining matches this season, Inter Milan are still quite comfortable and they are not under pressure from any team, currently several teams are just fighting to finish in the top 4 positions.
Inter does not need to stress themselves that much since they are out of the champions league and they are far ahead of Milan who is on the second position currently. It is Juventus and Milan that need to fight for who will finish second. The fourth position is what I cannot say which club will finish 4th, because we have two clubs that might be in the race of the 4th position.

This season was really in favor of Inter, and their performance was extraordinary in the league. Inzhagi is a good coach, and I believe that the pressure on him is less now that they are out of the champions league, he can take his time to see how he can take Inter to a greater height by next season

Holders of Bitcoins can certainly get the ATH of Bitcoin as well as the DIP. But finding the Bitcoin Deep is truly a matter of luck for many. To be a Bitcoin holder it's not how much investment he has, I think it's how much he believes in Bitcoin that is the matter.
if you had changed the last part of your statement, maybe you should have made a little sense but what you said here, you've not made the right statement.

Believing in Bitcoin is good but what's the essence of believing in Bitcoin without having much investment? How much investment you have is very important and it's absolutely more importantly than what you believe. That you have investment much into Bitcoin suggests that you believe in Bitcoin and what you're trying to say in the religion sense could be compared to mere having faith without putting in the needed work. Just like faith without work is dead, having a strong believe and hope in Bitcoin without investing much into Bitcoin is literally waste of knowledge, fake believe and wouldn't do you any good.
I understand what you mean @Hewlet, but I think that Rabata is also right too. This is because cause it is when you believe in bitcoin that it can be a safe haven tomorrow, or that you can use it to turn your future around that will enable to hodli for a very long time, or even use it as part of your life. Now there are two scenario for you to look into.

The early investors, Mr A was opportune to buy bitcoin for as low as $100, because he did not understand the potential of bitcoin, and much believe in it, but he was able to buy 10BTC at that time. As time passes by he saw that bitcoin price is increasing with time line, and he sold when bitcoin was $1000, believing that he have hit the jackpot, forgetting that for bitcoin price to reach 1000k, that bitcoin is capable of reaching $10000 and higher, because he didn't have the strong believe in bitcoin, currently such investor will be regretting that he sold too quick. Same happens to people who see bitcoin as something that is worth hodling for short periods of time like 4yrs and they sell off to take profit. He don't believe in the future of bitcoin if not they will hodli for a longer time.

Now Mr B, also bought 10BTC when bitcoin price was $100,because he sees bitcoin as a very precious investment, because he believes that bitcoin price will be more valuable in future, and when bitcoin price was 1000k he didn't sell any bitcoin but rather continue holdi because he believes that for bitcoin to reach that high price, in future bitcoin can hit 100k price. No matter the challenges that Mr B has passed through based on FUD, FOMO. He was still strong enough to overcome them and hodli because he believes in bitcoin.

It is when you believe in bitcoin that you can be able to increase your bitcoin size and hodli for a very long time. Laszlo would not use 10000BTC to pay 2 papa John's pizza.

We call it down here scratch and win. It is always fun to pick the ticket and you are eager to see the price in it. I was lucky on this scratch off ticket, that I won a good amount of money. My friend Shile will also tell me to accompany him to the mall, because he hates going alone, and he will tell me that he is doing it for fun. He gets lucky sometimes, and he will win, but sometimes he will lose.

I decided to go there myself one day, and I scratch off the tickets twice and I won, I started going there and one day I scratch more than 10 cards with no win. It funny part is that the money wasn't mine that I used, because as a student then it is hard to have such amount of money that I gambled away. I was deprived by may parents from going out because it was during the holidays. Those scratch off tickets are very tempting OP, so be careful and don't get carried away with it.

Unfortunately, year after year Brazil's performance has been decreasing and this is clear in the results of their last games.
Regarding the coach, Dorival Junior is a renowned Brazilian coach and in my opinion I think he can lead Brazil better than Diniz, but I believe that Ancelloti could become a game changer because he's a coach with extreme quality and reputation, but unfortunately he didn't go to Brazil.
Brazil will have some friendly matches in a few weeks and in a few months Brazil will play in the Copa America, after all, after these games we will be able to see what the level of the Brazilian football team will be.

Not really sure about that.

Brazil is the number 1 team on the FIFA ranking, they have won the most world cups in history, and they have qualified to every single edition of the world cup, which no other country has done, ever.

I can guarantee you that Brazil will qualify to this world cup as well, and they will go to the second stage.

After that it's a bit of a gamble though.
Brazil is in 5th place in the FIFA rankings with 1784.09 points and of course this is still at the top so saying that Brazil performance has decreased is not really accurate.
I completely agree with you that Brazil is one of the most consistent because they always qualify for the World Cup competition even though they have failed to win the title for long time.
After all, everyone also knows that Brazil is the most successful by winning 5 World Cup titles and this is proof that Brazil remains one of the strongest.
For the next World Cup I also believe they can qualify but to be the best candidate in the title race is still up doubt it.
Brazil current condition makes it impossible to fight for the World Cup title and being able to reach the quarter-finals or semi-finals is already very good achievement.

We can only watch and wait to see whether Brazil can really show its best strength for the upcoming World Cup and can fulfill the hopes of all fans.
I remember when I was in secondary school, that was when Brazil was super hot. Then those their players are the world top best and whenever Brazil wants to play against a country in the world cup, everyone will love to watch the match. But now the set of players are not that strong enough to overcome the challenge by other countries and win the world cup.

It is still the past glory that is speaking for Brazil, because at that time most countries have not built their squad that strong. Currently, football is the major center of attraction and entertainment so every country is more serious on it.
