There is nothing wrong about being a fan of the Brazilian team, but I am sure that the last few tournaments have been hurting the fans quite a lot. The last big success is quite a while ago, but I know that in 2019 they did win the Copa America. But I can only guess how much the Brazilian fans are missing a grand final at a World Cup and at the moment I can't see how this Brazilian team is able to get into the final at a big tournament. They have a lot of talents, but I miss the times when players like Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo and all these other crazy superstars were part of the team.

The match between Brazil and Spain was an international friendly match but even though it was an international friendly match both teams tried their best and showed maximum performance to win. Whether we call it a friendly match or a World Cup match, it is very important for every team to win the match. Brazil faced Spain in an international friendly, so we didn't talk much about this game. Brazil and Spain are quite strong teams in football, so when these two teams take the field against each other, the match will be very interesting and very exciting for us. The match between Brazil and Spain was as exciting off the field as it was on the field but this match was just as exciting. Brazil and Spain had a lot of hard-fought battles which resulted in them being able to draw against each other in this match.

What do you think, is the old Brazil back after these results? 

Joking aside it is of course not easy to make an assumption depending on just a friendly match. But especially in the match against Spain Brazil players looked very ambitious. It was like we were watching a World Cup finale you know.    When they made the score 3-3 their happiness was like they won an important match in a competition.

They had better show the same ambition in the World Cup qualifiers immediately. Otherwise they might even risk their quota for that. I guess things wouldn't come to that point but it is always better to take precautions in time.

Watching the game, I didn't think the game was competitive enough. It was just an average game to me and the score of draw was just because it was a friendly match. Brazil should win spain if it was a real game and not a friendly game. In the match Brazil were relax and didn't play very well because they  got outplayed by spain but were still able to draw the game. Brazil are always capable of winning spain but since it was a friendly game they allowed spain to lead the game then they equalized. I don't like when there's many goals in a match, it shows that the defence of the teams aren't solid to stop goals from entering their goal post and it might make the goal keeper to not have confidence when playing the next time. A solid team should concede less goals.. Both teams played very well but I don't think we saw the best from them and this is because it was just a friendly match.

Brazil needs to improve in their defense. Spain were inside the Dbox without any resistance each time. Except that both the team seemed to be equally capable.
England vs Belgium was another match I enjoyed. Lots of action, impressive goals, some good saves. Both of the goals for Belgium were scored by Tielemans in 1st half, both impressive ones, the first due to a poor clearing by Pickford and second by an impressive assist from Lukaku. England scored their 1st goal as penalty. The 2nd half was mostly England attacking Belgian post. But it took the last minute of the injury time to score the equalizer goal. One of the corner goal from England was overturned by VAR due to offside.

For someone who watched the Spain vs Brazil game, I can confirm for a fact that it was a well matched game. Both teams were very competitive and it was entertaining to watching especially when seeing all the tricks that players  Yamal, Vini and Endrick put on display. Yamal especially because he completely tore apart Brazil's defense on multiple occasions. I also loved the fact that Brazil fought back hard. As a friendly game, I didn't expect such competitiveness but you'd love to see it.

Argentina is of course the favorite team in the match because it only faces Costa Rica which is currently ranked 54 FIFA at the moment, as you might expect of course Argentina can win over Costa Rica with a fairly convincing score over which is 3-1, actually the match is not as easy as you think because Argentina has to fight hard to win the match.

Argentina did look quite dominant by continuing to launch attacks through Alvarez, Di Maria and Garnacho who continued to be able to trouble Costa Rica's defense throughout the first half, but unfortunately they had to concede first in the 33rd minute through Ulgade's goal, and even though they continued to press Costa Rica but Argentina failed to continue to equalize the score, in the second half Argentina was able to make good use of opportunities through a goal scored by Dimaria in the 51st minute,  Allister55th-minute and  winner goal by Martinez 76th-minute, a 3-1 win over Costa Rica capped this month's friendlies, and Argentina's next match against Guatemala in June is Argentina's final friendly before competing in the Copa America in June 2024.

Spain failed win on two friendly matches after defeating by Colombia over 0-1 and last match hold draw by Brazil with score 3-3, indeed as friendly matches I think Spain must be impressive performance and secure three points on FIFA matchday match for helping their FIFA ranking awhile. Last match against Brazil seems Spain not had quit well performance and most fatal goals scored by Brazil after mistake made by Unai Simón human error passing.
Its should be evaluate for Spain before playing on EURO 2024 and has one friendly match left against Andorra next month, I think enough with some rotation and Spain must get regular players for playing well in group phase Euro 2024 have difficult team against Croatia, Italy and mediocre team Albania.

The Brazilian team is no longer that top that used to be and they are trying to recover. Their results in CONMEBOL are quite unsatisfying. Their results in friendlies games were way better and hopefully they will get back to their usual form.

That's good! Congratulations to Indonesia this victory and we hope to see it winning what left and pass

I don't know why Spain do was unable to win the match which they started well. If not for the two penalties that was given to Spain how would they have scored more goals, however they deserved the penalty and it is part of football. Their early lead was unable to secure a win for them.

Brazil took advantage of the second half, and equalized the game to end the match in a draw. Actually, I was not expecting Spain to win the match, because both teams are balanced and filled with youngsters. It was an interesting match.

Brazil is my favorite team and I try to watch Brazil games since long. Even though I am very busy, I set aside the time when Brazil is playing so that I can enjoy this game. Like all other matches today was no exception and today I watched the match between Brazil and Spain. Brazil looked really helpless against Spain in the beginning. Spain dominated the first 10 to 30 minutes against Brazil but then Brazil turned around. Every time Spain went ahead, Brazil paid for the goal and paid for the goal in doing so and the score was 3-3 at the end of 90 minutes. Spain and Brazil are very strong against each other as we saw in last night's match as neither team conceded any concessions in last night's match both teams played evenly and Brazil and Spain drew despite trying to bring the result in their favor.

Kobbie Mainoo winning the man of the match award will surely secure him a place in Gareth Southgates selection for the Euro. All these new and young talents, from Kobbie Mainoo, Endrick, Garnacho and then Yamal, in their different teams, we are sure that the next generation of soccer players are still going to be as impressive as the present generation that are all almost retiring.
This result is more of a better result for Brazil. After defeating England, they were able to still not loose this game despite being two goals behind early. The team will grow some self believe with this result.

Thank you. And quite a fun night because Indonesia won 0-3. This history repeats itself after almost 20 years. The inclusion of Ragnar and Tom Haye who did not play in the first leg of the match made the Indonesian game extraordinary. At first I was worried because many players were suddenly ill.  Looking at this game, of course, in the remaining two matches, realistically, at least Indonesia gets 4 points. Because Indonesia will play at home and it is profitable. It seems that there will be new player names coming in. Currently, of course, Indonesia's chances of entering round 3 are very large.

The Argentina vs Costa Rica match is going to start shortly. Between Argentina and Costa Rica, Argentina is a very strong team. Argentina has won 4 matches and lost 1 match in the last 5 matches, Costa Rica has lost 3 matches and won 2 matches in the last 5 matches. Even today it seems that Argentina will play without Lionel Messi. However, I think Argentina will beat Costa Rica easily. Which team do you think will win?

England 2 - 2 Belgium
Germany 2 - 1 Netherlands
Spain 3 - 3 Brazil

So only one of my prediction ended up being correct while England and Spain failed to win. For Belgium they were leading twice before England gets the draw and Bellingham saved them in the end from a defeat.
Spain were leading with two goals in the beginning, yet they failed also to win. There were 3 penalties in this match

So now that all games are over, it's time to see how these predictions fared:

Germany W
England X
Brazil X

I underestimated teams that England and Brazil were playing because they were only able to salvage a point from both their matches. England have all the top stars in the world but always failing to impress or win games especially really crucial games that matches their squad quality. As for Brazil, it was a well contested game so I have zero remarks othan that.

Germany under Julian Nagelsmann finally can showing positive progress that after they successfully can beat France few days ago then today Germany was able to resumes their winning streak by win with narrow scores 2-1 from Netherlands and using the same formation just like when they beat France then Germany has taking initiative to playing attacking since the beginning of match but surprisingly Veerman can makes Netherlands leading the game but fortunately it didn't take long for Germany to equalize because within 7 minutes Mittelstädt can change the scores to 1-1 and on the second half Fuellkrug can became an super subs and bringing Germany to gets their 3rd winning under Julian Nagelsmann

On the other hand England also today gets unsatisfactory result because they only playing draw against Belgium and indeed before this match begin some people predict England was doubted to win this because England have to lost some of their key players before this match and even Southgate have to playing Lewis Dunk as the replacement of Maguire who got injured but indeed England was lucky because with his goal Bellingham can safe this team from the loses and this big evaluation for Southgate because England without the winning results in the last 2 friendlies matches

Unfortunately, Türkiye is in a terrible situation again. They are losing 4-1 against Austria. The responsibility for this is Montella, who created the wrong squad, and the federation president, who intervened in the squad. Although Turkish football has great potential, it's about to lose another golden generation due to bad management. The U21 team is in a better situation than the A team. It's not possible for the national team to achieve success unless the institutions in the country are cleaned.

     Spain 1-0 Brazil

This is the most interesting match today, and the match is currently ongoing. In fact this match is filled with superstars, and currently Spain is in control of the game, maybe because the match is being played in Madrid. Youngsters are the ones currently in both teams. Yamal is Spain youngest player, and goak score ever since history.

Rodrigo have scored with a penalty on the 12th minutes, after Yamal was brought down inside Brazil box. It was a brilliant goal from Rodrigo. What an early goal for the host, as they started the match impressively by mounting pressure on Brazil defense.

In my opinion, the best team in Europe is France, we just need to see that it was France that reached the final of the World Cup in a game that was balanced against Argentina, which in my opinion is the best team in America, I don't know why anyone would consider Spain to be the best team in Europe when Spain didn't even reach the World Cup final and the same thing as for Brazil, see what the result of Spain's last game was:



spain lost against colombia, while brazil beat england in a game in which they only managed to score just 1 goal and kane is not playing for england and see that england is not stronger than france, also look at Brazil's performance in the World Cup qualifying games:

Brazil 0 - 1 Argentina
Colombia 2 - 1 Brazil
Uruguay 2 - 0 Brazil
Brazil 1 - 1 Venezuela

I wonder how, with these results, Brazil could be considered the best team in America? It is also necessary to take into account that Brazil has not won any World Cup for many years, so they are not the best team in the world, they are not the strongest team in the world or in America. We often look at the name of a team just because it was successful in the past, so we think that this team is strong, but the team name does not make this team strong, this Brazilian squad needs to win something big like the World Cup to have a value big and be considered strong, until they manage to win a World Cup, they are still not strong in my opinion. and I honestly don't see this Brazilian squad being able to win the World Cup

world cup qualification table:



Brazil still needs to qualify, so we can then see how far they can get in the world cup, for now they are a weak team in America and in the world
