What's your pick guys? Will Brazil the five-time World Cup winners but never Olympic champions triumph against Argentina?

Personally, I pick Brazil. :smile:

Brazil won the World Cup in Korea/Japan 2002. I think they can win the Olympic gold in Beijing 2008.

i tink maybe Brazil will go thru,they are more hungry for the medal.
though they dominate the World Cup,they have not won anything in Olympic.

It was a letdown instead of a showdown. Brazil simply lost the plot and collpased. Argentina walked over.

Countries like Brazil and Argentina pay their national footballers very little allowance, for token only. These players make most of their money from club salaries and commercial sponsorships. So you may ask, what then makes them commit to play well for their countries? The international stage, like the World Cup or the Olympics, is like a supermarket and stockmarket combined. It's a auctioneer's showroom where their values in terms of club salaries and commercial sponsorship can rise astronomically if they perform well.

a bit disappointed with Brazil,before this match,they let in none.
in this match alone,they let in 3 goals.

Nigeria will give Argentina a run for the Gold.
Argentina will have revenge on their mind for their previous lost in Olympic to Nigeria.
i still think Argentina will win the Gold.

This Brazil youth team is weak! To think they can actually beat our senior national team, fattened with foreigners, 3-0?? Goes to show the state of our soccer standards!!

Not only Singapore football, but overall SEA football is going down the drains. Only Singapore and Thailand managed to make it to the World Cup qualifying group stage, but both got summarily knocked out. Same case with waterpolo, where Singapore is king in SEA, but failed to even qualify to contest in the Olympics.
