WORLD CUP USA ’94 / THE FIRST ROUND : SPOTLIGHT : WHAT, BRAZIL WORRIED?
<i> Times Rio Bureau</i>
Brazilian novelist Joao Ubaldo in Rio de Janeiro’s O Globo:
“I never thought I’d write this, but I’m a bit afraid of playing against the United States. It’s obvious that, normally, any Brazilian team not composed exclusively of wooden leg players would beat the United States. But the way we are playing, under pressure to not lose, I prepare myself for 90 minutes of suffering and exasperation, as with the awful game against Sweden.”
