Belgium Up Against A Tough Olympic Brazil Squad

On August 7th, Belgium kicks off against Brazil in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The match will be played in Shenyang with a kickoff time of 17h00. Brazil manager Dunga selected Ronaldinho, Robinho, and Thiago Neves as the three players over 23 years old. The already talented Brazilians just got scarier. They will give the Belgian olympic squad a tough time. I don’t think those young defenders are ready to face Robinho and Ronaldinho. Poor Bailly has to stop shots from Robinho! No one shoots like Robinho in the Belgium Jupiler League. Group C includes Belgium, Brazil, China, and New Zealand. Great! We have to deal with Brazil and a determined China.
