NZ to play Brazil

[Tim]

NZ will play Brazil in Geneva as a warm-up to the World Cup.
10-nil to Brazil anyone?

 

[_Ed_]

I think we'd be happy with 10-0!

 

[Tim]

Considering we've got more players playing in the upper European leagues, it'll be ok. If we end up fielding the majority of the side with NZ Knights players, then it could get ugly.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Think you'll go ok, maybe hold them to 3 or 4. As it's being held in Geneva I'd imagine your foreign based players will be playing.

 

[cometer]

I seriously would doubt it to go 10 - 0, i'd say 3 or 4 to 0 as well because it's just a friendly and brazil will most likely go easy once they are infront.

 

[chaminda_00]

HK got beat 7-1 and UAE 7-0 so i doubt it will be 10 nil even if NZ don't have all their European players.

 

[33/3from3.3]

bets on guys?
half time and full time scores?
Half- 4-0 Brazil
Full- 6-1 Brazil

 

[Right arm fast]

6-1 at full time??
i hope we can score a goal but i highly doubt it should be good for nz players

 

[Craig]

Brazil will use it as a chance to give the other squad members a go (ie guys like Diego, or Junniho if picked) I would imagine.

Although I would find it funny if Ronaldinho did play and did suffer a pretty serious injury by a New Zealand defender who wants to be remembered for forcing The World's Greatest Player off on the medicab. More so the backlash in Brazil that would happen for playing a meaningless game.

 

[33/3from3.3]

Exactly Brazil wont try hard or use their full squad and NZ are bound to get lucky

 

[shaka]

Good luck to NZ they will need it.

 

[ash chaulk]

yeah if i were the kiwis id help out there allies and beat the brazillians up for the aussies

 

[33/3from3.3]

since when are NZ and Aus allies?

 

[Craig]

Back in World War One and Two?

 

[Xuhaib]

How many kiwis in the premiership?

 

[Matteh]

the only capped New Zealand footballer i can think of is Shane Smeltz....and he played for us (mansfield) before going on to the mighty AFC Wimbledon....

Ryan Nelson plays for Blackburn. Simon Elliot plays for Fulham.

 

[Tim]

Alot of NZ players are in the mid to lower leagues in England. Our only other player in a decent team is Ivan Vicelich and he's been playing for Roda JC for around 3 or 4 seasons now.

 

[roseboy64]

Should be an interesting result and team picked by Brazil.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Ryan Nelson plays for Blackburn. Simon Elliot plays for Fulham.

Chris Killen plays for Oldham Athletic in League One, too.
