I saw Brasil-Uruguay match, (a beautiful goal by Dario Silva of Uruguay by the way) and I was disgusted by the way brasilian fans acted. Aldair lost the ball in a miscommunication with his defense for the first goal of Uruguay, and when he had the ball he was jeered! Then,
as the game went on, constant jeering and chants insulting the team continued, while even the brasilians in the stadium were doing this when Luxembourgo the coach, made changes or came off his bench! I say, that the noise was loud and from a lot of people, dont they realize that Brasil (like any country) cant always defeat teams by 4 goals and that the world of football is closer than ever before in terms of quality. Uruguay is not a bad side at all, and the way brasilian fans acted was disgusting and that is no way to support a team through criticism and insults! If I were playing for Brasil on such a night, I would be ashamed to play for that country!
