The Confederations Cup has exited the group stage and is headed towards the semi-finals. So far the Confederations Cup hasn’t failed to disappoint this year. The world has embraced seeing Neymar playing on the stage and he is willing to provide eye-popping highlights every game or even new celebratory dances.
The Finals is set up to be a CONMEBOL team vs a UEFA team. Brazil, led by Barcelona’s newest player Neymar, will take on Uruguay and Liverpool striker Luis Suarez on Wednesday.
Fernando Torres plays at a different level for Spain and will lead his squad against Pirlo’s Italian squad that will try to get it done with out Mario Balotelli. The AC Milan striker also plays at a different level when playing for Italy and has been a big presence for the Italian squad.
PREDICTION:
A young and depleted Italian squad will struggle to get the job done against the more experienced, more accomplished more veteran Spanish squad. Buffon is the Italian squad’s best chance at passing if he can stand tall in goal and keep them in the game.
Neymar and the Brazilian squad look unbeatable. They’re motivated at home as protests steal the headlines. Neymar looks determined to break out on the scene to those outside of the soccer world.
If you could only watch one game, make sure you watch Brazil vs. Uruguay and see what Neymar does next.
