There is news going around that Brazil may come to Singapore for one of their Olympics warm-up match on the 28th of July. Taken from CONFEDERAÇÃO BRASILEIRA DE FUTEBOL news,

Seleção Brasileira Olímpica embarca no dia 21 de julho para Cingapura, para preparação para Olimpíadas de Pequim. iagem será via Paris, onde os jogadores que atuam na Europa se apresentam, e equipe fará amistoso no dia 28 de julho contra Seleção de Cingapura.


translated to be..

Olympic Selection: friendly with Singapore and preparation outside Brazil. CBF mark departure for the day July 28 in Asia. Complete program for the Beijing Olympic Games is not yet disclosed


Singapore is chosen to be one of the Asian countries that the U21 team will be playing against! It'll be so cool to see the national team play against the giants. Although I foresee a trashing on the Singapore side, I guess it's good exposure for the team. And I wonder where this match will be played at? (since the last World Cup Qualifier match marks the closure of the Kallang Stadium for real!)

If they are really coming over to play Singapore, I'd definitely go and watch! And I'll wear a Brazilian jersey with a Lion's logo at the back. LOL.

Here is the tentative lineup for the Brazilian team.

Diego Alves - Almería

Renan - Internacional

Alex Silva - São Paulo

Breno - Bayern de Munique

Thiago Silva - Fluminense

Ilsinho - Shakhtar Donetsk

Rafinha - Schalke 04

Marcelo - Real Madrid

Anderson - Manchester United

Diego - Werder Bremen

Hernanes - São Paulo

Lucas - Liverpool

Ronaldinho - Barcelona

Thiago Neves - Fluminense

Alexandre Pato - Milan

Jô - Manchester City

Rafael Sobis - Real Bétis

Robinho - Real Madrid
