So who watched Brazil play Ireland today?

I didn't get to see it. :/

How did Grafite do? I've been saying he should get a call up for a while now. I've like to see him at the world cup.

I heard that Robinho played great. Did anyone else impress?

Update:

@ La Pulga: i watched the video of Robinho's goal. Great great finish. I'm glad he's back on form again.

If Dunga doesn' t recall Ronaldo (and i doubt he will) i hope he'll take Grafite.

    I watched the highlights but it seemed Brazil played better in the second half and Robinho was great along with Kaka, Lucio, and Maicon. The rest were okay. From the looks at it Adriano is far from his old Adriano and doesn't look like he will make the squad. he had a bad game.

    Actually Brazil played much better when Ramires came off for Dani Alves and Adriano for Grafite. Kaka, Robinho, and Grafite played great tic tac back and forth footy to let Robinho make his goal. The goal was superb finishing. Little bit outside the 18 yd box curled it low to the second post of Given, great goal.

    Like i said before Robinho has all the talent to be one of the best players in the world. He just needs to be in the right system and let him do is own thing. That's why i wanted him at Barca, our system can make him into one of the best.

    Schuster and Capello didn't let him play his own way in Madrid and he didn't show what he had. In santos he is.

    Forza Robinho!

    Brazil is not the same and Dunga is a horrid coach.

    Ivory Coast will win that group and a Brazil vs Spain match up will occur early.

    Brazil is not a clear favorite in this world cup...they are very beatable. First goal was a mistake by the sideline official and an own goal.

    Friendlies should not be judged by the score...but for how the team played...Brazil played like @ss.

    Im a big big fan of Grafite, he didn't start the game but when he came on he was a big big threat. The most memorable moment of Grafite in the game for me was when he picked up the ball on the sidline just inside Irelands half, he then did a lovely turn on his marker, slipped right past him and ended it with a nice shot that was pushed away by Given.

    Robinho had a decent game but i don't think he's back to his best although his goal was one of the best i've seen all year.

    It's pretty costly for teams to travel to South America for a friendly. Brazil, being Brazil, are sure to draw a large crowd no matter where they play, so they use the likes of the Emirates or places like Dubai for their 'home' games and keep up to 50% of the gate money.

    I did. It was kinda boring, except for those 5 minutes around the second goal.

    The first goal was an offside, and then.. an own goal.

    I thought it was boring overall. Brazil can do way better than that.

    i still believe that brazilians do a kind of makumba cuz they're always damn lucky!! if they're in offside the ref doesnt see it, the rivals score own goals, if their mobile rings while they're playing they start talking and the ball hits on their @ss by accident and they score!! (just to give an example lol)

    the 2nd goal was fair tho

    Offside~~!!! Should not have been allowed. Also at an international level, you shouldn't be letting in owns goals :o
