Argentina at the Crest
With the group stage ending on Thursday, the Copa America quarterfinal stage gets underway on Saturday with a couple of rematches as the home nation Venezuela confronts the old guard Uruguay while a Dunga-burdened Brazil look to defeat Chile again.
The final two matches on Sunday look much more appetizing as the in-form teams, Mexico and Paraguay, look to lock horns in the harshest of the matches, and undefeated Argentina looks to continue its winning streak against modest Peru.
At the moment, Argentina looks classes above and is on an obvious mission to reclaim a much needed trophy. Basile has used all his guile, doing what others have said could never be done–winning with Veron and Requilme in the same midfield.
Don’t look for Brazil to start clicking any time soon—so far Robinho is the only one on cue—as it seems their Coach and defensive maestro miss-tuned his berimbau before the tournament, which has put Brazil off their cup winning rhythm.
