This game won't happen.

I believe that this game is between Brazil U19 and Argentina(I don't know which team the argentinians will send)

The CBF web site www.cbfnews.com.br announced that the U19 squad had been picked to play in an Easter tournament in Spain, and the same squad would travel to Chicago to play a friendly against Argentina afterwards. The full squad is here:

It's still on the schedule.

 

[Cerezo Mineiro]

OK, it will happen MAS U-20 is not U-23!!

 

[$ukhjit]

It does say Beijing 2008 so I assume there will be U23 players!

 

[Cerezo Mineiro]

Those likely to go to China are in the senior squad v Sweden.

 

[San Siro]

Not sure if this is the right thread or not, but yesterday, the women U 19 selection became south American champs by beating Argentina in the final with the usual scoreline these days, 3-0. :jester: :shades:

 

[Humbird]

Who cares.

 

[gauteballe]

From the squad list it is obvious that none of the players will go to China. The brazilian players are mostly unknowns born in 1989 and 1990.

So the match being billed as Beijing 2008 is false?

 

[Cerezo Mineiro]

Yes.

Yes,obviously. Argentina may send their U23 team, but Brazil send a U19 team. None of Brazil's players will play in China.

The core of the Brazilian U23 team is in London preparing for the friendly against Sweden tomorrow.
