Tuesday, 17 June 2008 |
 The qualifiers for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ have taken centre stage across the globe this June, and not surprisingly, the upcoming Brazil-Argentina clash is the month's main attraction. Just to make sure you do not miss any of the action when the South American titans face off in Belo Horizonte on Wednesday, FIFA.com will be laying on live coverage in both Spanish and English through its exclusive MatchCast service. Naturally, this latest instalment in the biggest rivalry on the continent is the game of the week in the South American qualifying competition, with Paraguay currently heading the table after defeating the Brazilians on Sunday. The Seleçao will be anxious to get back on track straight away, and what better way to do that than by beating the old enemy, who had a deflating weekend of their own when they scraped a point against Ecuador in Buenos Aires? "The Paraguay result was very bad for us and it's increased the pressure ahead of the Argentina match," said Brazil coach Dunga after the final whistle in Asuncion. But despite his side's slip-up against the Ecuadorians, opposite number Alfio Basile has a more positive take on the crunch midweek match-up. "Sometimes things just work out that way, sometimes they don't. I'm optimistic about Wednesday's game and we'll be going there to win." |
