Emirates Stadium, 27/3/11
This was 2-0 going on a doing. Brazil were, as expected, superior in every department.
What was especially noticeable was that every time they lost the ball they swarmed round the Scotland players and as a result got it back very quickly. Their speed of thought and movement were a cut above. Plus their virtuosity was sublime. Only the odd misplaced pass and then working like beavers to get the ball back.
Scotland’s players looked pedestrian.
We’re kidding ourselves if we think we can ever get near them.
