Well...firstly I must give Brazil enormous kudos for a great defensive performance.....but...

Dunga's Brazil and their 3 defensive midfielders must score first against an offensive team like Argentina. Were these two teams to play again, there is no guarantee Brazil would win. They were definatly not dominate on the offensive end. They played classic counter attacking football. They are much less effective playing from behind.

And losing to Brazil doesnt mean they arent better than any other team in the world. One last thing, hate to add it, but I wonder if the result might have been different had the game been played at night and not in 90 degree heat with 70% humidity.
