Dida Brazil keeper was very good as usually. Ruben Oliveira’s kick was very powerful. And Dida must be thought that he had kicked off a ball. He was not guilty of the goal.
Cafu He got a not obligatory yellow card and he will miss next game. After this he wasn’t very outstanding. During all the game he mainly worked in defence.
Lucio Especially in the first time Uruguay periodically found holes in Brazil defence. But Lucio didn’t do any gross mistake. In addition he twice headed in the net after corners and last kick finished as Emerson’s goal.
Luisao He did not find ‘a common language’ with Lucio. He lost uruguayan strikes in several moments and he lost Forlán when uruguayan striker scored a goal. On 68 minute after his kick Emerson returned the ball in the net.
Roberto Carlos He played in his usual manner and was very active in attack. But he had a very big percent of losses. As usual Roberto Carlos kicked much from standards.
Emerson He again was a boss of the centre of the field and helped his defenders. But uruguayans midfielders were very active and gived him a lot of trouble too. His wonderful goal saved Brazil from defeat.
Ze Roberto He played as second defensive midfielder near Emerson and did it not bad. But he had not good chances to make something in attack.
Ronaldinho He was the best brazilian in this match and played as real leader of the team. Ronaldinho appeared in different parts of the field, started many attacks especially made good opportunities for Ronaldo. In addition he could scored from standard on 82 minute and made all corners, one from which finished by Emerson’s goal.
Kaka As Ronaldinho he played in all position in the middle of the field. He tried to start attacks as from the right flank so from the left flank. But the most part of his passes were wrong. On 72 minute Kaka beautifully rolled a ball to Ronaldo who had had to score.
Ricardo Oliveira During the most of his time he was cut from his mates. He tried to fight for a ball but lost all duels. Now he is not in his best conditions.
Ronaldo As always he had several chences to kick on the net but ‘Fenomeno’ was very heavy and lazy. He didn’t have any ideas to do something special. On 72 minute he had to score but he kicked on keeper’s hands.
Robinho With his enter Brazil became more agressive. His speed resulted in two important corners.
Renato He played good as defensive midfielder.
