Brazilian Serie A

[Flavia]

Bump as something curious happened. Fluminense, that won the Série A last year, just got relegated to segunda... Fred's team.

So, Flavia (or anyone else with knowledge of Brazilian football for that matter), one of my tv channels have started airing matches from the Paulista. Right now Corinthians are playing Palmeiras, and I was wondering if there are any special players worth keeping an eye out for?

Just saw your post. But no, I don't think there's any special players in neither of these teams.

All right, thanks. It's been fairly entertaining, but aside from a few good displays of ball control and flair, the level hasn't been impressive, to say the least.

How about the league - the Série A too - in general, who's the stars or potential stars for the future nowadays?

Oooh, looks like Santos will be playing shortly.

This is so very, very sad. They're a small team, and were so happy to be playing this final. And I watched some bits of their last game, vs Palmeiras, Sunday. It's really messed up.

Messi and the arg team traveled in this same plane recently, when they went from argentina to brazil.

Just woke up to this very disturbing news ... it put things in perspective and how insignificant foot ball can be in those circumstances .. god be with the deceased ; the injured and their families

Incredibly devastating news to wake up to.

RIP to all the victims and may the survivors pull through.
