I start threads for friendly games, but they don't last much. And there is a Brazilian football thread but any WC Quals games would get lost there, so it's worthy starting a single WC Quals thread instead of opening threads for every Brazilian WC Quals game.

[retired_the gizmo]

get lost there? there's only 3 of you that post in that thread.

Dunga called the same players that played against USA and Mexico, and pretty much the same players that played Copa América.

Afonso played a cup game recently (for Heerenveen's reserve team), but I am not sure if he has played any league games so far.
