The Olympic Football Final

Final - Wembley - 11th August 2012

Here's the view at Wembley, as the teams line up for their national anthems.


I've had a look at the starting 11's, and this is how I expect the teams to play, although Brazil will be a lot more free-flowing than Mexico, with Oscar, Romulo, Hulk and especially Neymar drifting around the pitch. On the other hand, Mexico will be very organised and tight, and won't get their full backs up as much as Brazil. Mexico are missing their top scorer and assister of the Olympic campaign, underrated Tottenham player Giovanni Dos Santos, so perhaps that will be a problem. Superstar 20 y/o Neymar is looking to impress, as always.
