Re-igniting Brazilian Football
Brazil Football Confederation (CBF) has brought back Carlos Dunga as Coach of the Brazil National Football team. It is the second time that the captain of the Brazil’s 1994 world cup winning side is given the charge of re-igniting life in the Brazil team, which conceded 10 goals in their last two matches in the just concluded World Cup Football.
However, the decision to bring back Dunga has witnessed mixed reactions. Most of the critics expressed their surprise because Brazil under him suffered defeat to Holland in the quarterfinal of the 1910 World Cup Football. Immediately after the competition, he was then sacked.
So far we know, Dunga prefers defensive football to the artistic display. He can take lessons from Germany, the eventual world champions. The Germans displayed beautiful football, which Brazil once practiced and used to play.
Many Brazilians have little faith in his qualities as a coach, while others will patiently watch for some days his performance.
