Since Brazil's elimination in Germany 2006, the Brazilian national have prepared a long process that now can be effective to show the world the talent and the play that the players have to offer. Brazil has been an effective team since the elimination, they have confronted many international tournaments and friendly games that the Brazilian team little by little hopes to have the enough confidence to affront the World Cup. By the looks of it, Brazil is willing to show a spectacular show even though with the absences of Ronaldinho and Ronaldo, they surely proof that Germany was four years ago and to forget the unfortunate departure from the European country without holding the Cup. This Brazilian team is ready psychologically because of the many tournaments like the Copa America in Venezuela in 2007 and in the Confederations Cup last year, they have been prepared themselves because they all know their way of playing and showing that camaraderie in the field is what makes the team move forward. Robinho is going to be one of the players that much has to exhibit the individual game because like Lionel Messi, he is mostly responsible for the many counter attacks to distribute to his teammmates.

Players like Maicon seems to be willing to do that, for example his role throughout the Champions League this season proved a very solid defense with Maicon and Lucio becoming a giant wall that neither midfielders or strikers could pass through. The Brazilian team has to do is to take advantage of the spaces left by his rivals and to control the ball continuously so that the rivals lose more rythm as the minutes go through. Robinho needs to exhibit his best game shown in Santos F.C., where most of his time, he spent doing choreographies that made the rival team dance away and confuse with his dribbling. With Robinho's fantastic ability, they will be able to liquidate the score with Kaká and Luis Fabiano's explosivity in the offensive. Also, what Brazil needs to do is to learn their teammates' moves and with practice they will be able to demonstrate their best game by scoring many goals.

Brazil is going to play their penultimate friendly game against Zibabwe, in which what they have to analyze their faults and to correct them, so that way they can learn from these experiences and to make a successful presentation in the World Cup.
