Meh. It was more of a formal pat on the back. dinho was really celebrating with Marcelo.

Anyway, Marcelo scored the only goal for Brasil tonight. Something is not functioning well in attack.

Ronaldinho kills off everything we do,he just can't keep it simple.neymar was all alone in attack,Marcelo was the only guy linking up with him.when ganso came in we looked really good

The amount of ground Marcelo made up and how quickly was nothing short of amazing

Was Brazil's captain yesterday. Shit just got real

marcelo is a terrible choice for captain lol, he is way to volatile on the pitch.

When Marcelo got picked ahead of Higuain for Madrid 3rd Captain due to a few weeks difference in the date they signed, a little piece of Madridismo died.

I'm sure Brasil has more suitable players who can be captain other than Marcelo. I think he is a really good player but captain material he is not...

our average age on the pitch last night was of 21,im just saying.TS is our main captain

Really?



Marcelo is a hardcore madridista. I'm glad he was picked, none deserves it more than him.

And really? A piece of madridismo died? Since when did you decide that?

btw,if anyone finds out his nutmeg + zidane roulette from yesterday send me a link

José Mourinho might well find himself with a problem on the left wing at the start of the season. Marcelo wants to play in the Olympic Games, and the Brazilian manager Mario Menezes, is set on picking him as one of the three players over the age of 23 allowed to take part in the competition.

Marcelo, who has been training with the Brazilian team since the 25th May, and who took part in the Beijing Olympic Games, is excited about the possibility of winning the gold medal, the only honour Brazil have not won in their entire footballing history. "I want to go to the Olympic Games. I am working very hard and I would love to return to this competition. We all want to go", he said in an interview published on the CBF website.

The Olympic Games football starts on 25th July and ends on 11th August, the exact part of the summer when Real Madrid will be touring the United States. Thus the Brazilian player would start the season without pre-season practice, and having had a little less than one week's holiday.

Nonetheless Marcelo is very excited about the Brazilian side. "I am in the best moment of my career and I want to enjoy it to the full. I am very happy at Real Madrid and in the national team, and I want to go on like this for a long time," the Brazilian winger declared.

This might be offtopic, but anyone wanna explain how Olypmic football actually works? Just like an any other tourny? Never bothered to watch anyway.

I love Marcelo just as much as the next guy, but he 'deserves' it more than Higuain? Come on son. Marcelo is not captain material, TBH I still wonder how at a club like Madrid, captains are chosen by their arrival date. I mean, if Marcelo had arrived a year before Pipita I woud understand, but does anyone actually look to him as a true leader of the squad? I think not.

Saeta it is the rule that needs to be changed. You can't just break the rules for one situation.

the rule has a good theory behind it but with this generation of players it makes little sense because of how young we have bought some players.

i love marcelo but can you imagine next year (hypothetically of course) if ramos and iker left, marcelo would be the main captain..

it should go
iker
xabi
ramos

Just like most international tourneys. There is qualification across the world in their different regions (Europe has 4, Asia and Africa has 3.5 each, South and North America has 2 and Oceania has 1.) with the only catch being it's an Under 23 tournament although one is allowed 3 players over 23 in the squad. 16 teams qualify with 4 groups of 4, similar to the European Championships.

All in all, a standard tourney...
