I have heard Frank Rikjaard after the FIFA Club World Cup final press conference. He was expecting a Samba team. As Abel Braga, Internacional ' manager, have said, Carnival happens once a year and the other part of the year we work hard. We can mark all the field hard also. Samba is the main exported product of Brazil but we have other parts of the country. I´ll use again the example of Internacional de Porto Alegre. Porto Alegre is a city that is close from Argentinian and Uruguayan boarder, in the South of Brazil and milonga, candomble and tango are much closer to us than samba. We are closer to Buenos Aires and Montevideu than to Rio. We look much more to Boca Juniors, River Plate, Nacional and Peñarol than to Flamengo, São Paulo and Corinthians. And we are far, far, far away from the jungle. I think when you european guys comment about Brazilian football don´t forget to study a little bit more about our football, our geography and our history. They are all connected to our soccer. We are a huge country. A mixed people that lives and plays soccer different from place to place. This simplist analsys causes to us Brazilian fans that you just know our National team. And this sounds wierd to us, because we are much more in touch to the European footbal than you to the real Brazilian football. What will you think about us if we don´t know the difference between Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea for example? Does Sir Alex Ferguson uses blue and Jose Mourinho uses red? I´m kidding. I know that Alex Ferguson rules on Old Trafford and Jose Mourinho rules on Stamford Bridge. Don´t forget. We are the Brazilian boys. The barbecue boys, the samba boys, the caipirinha boys. the jungle boys. All the boys from the 27 states of our wondeful country. We can play a beautiful football, but we also want to be competitive. Do we have great strikes? Yes we have. But we have great goalkeepers as Dida and Taffarel, great defenders as Lucio and Juan, great central midfielders as Emerson and Gilberto Silva. They are not ballerinas as Ronaldinho Gaucho. Even Kaka isn´t. But they are competitive. You, european guys, pay 100, 200 euros to see 'Joga Bonito' on 'Brazil World Tour'. Brazilian people don´t care about it. I wish that soon we can organize our continent soccer with Argentina, Uruguay, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Bolivia, Colombia and Paraguay. We need and we will recover our south american soccer identity. Cost what it costs. Hurt whom it hurts.
