BR - When the final whistle blew on the 2012 Olympic football tournament, Brazil's future suddenly became a bit murky.
With a squad that had all the dazzle of a senior Brazil team but with the competition of an Under-23 tournament, anything less than a gold medal in London was bound to be viewed as a great disappointment. So when Oscar missed the final chance of the match and sent A Seleção to a 2-1 loss to Mexico and a silver medal, Brazil's failure was complete.
What next? Simple. Host and win the world cup in 2014. Thats all that matters now.
The Brazil of now doesn't have enough chemistry. Neymar needs to get his ass to Europe to improve,and they WILL need a smart midfielder, nobody can fill Ronaldinho's shoes but there's serious communication problems within the midfield.
Being arrogant like they have been(coaches) will assure them an early exit from the next World Cup.
