The Verdeamarela began 2012 exactly as they wanted to: with a prestigious victory, excellent play, and goals
Brazil managed to keep the tradition untouched today in Sao Paulo, beating the Beach Soccer Worldwide Team in the Desafio Internacional held in the Arena de Guarapiranga. Guga and his lads experienced the beginning of 2012 they desired, with a prestigious victory, excellent beachsoccering, and goals, to convince their crowd and themselves that they have not lost the magic that has kept them on top of the Beach Soccer universe.
Bruno Malias gave the Verdeamareala an early lead, with his 199th net with the Barzilian National Team, after proving faster than Pamapero in the race, and hitting a ball straight to Bukhlitskiy’s back of the net. The Beach Soccer Worldwide Team counteracted rather soon, with USA player Gil (replacing Olawale after some customs issues prevented the Nigerian starlet join the team). But little afterwards Sidney replied again for the hosts with a wonderful goal right before the end of the first period.
Brazil would never lose the lead again, and André would widen the advantage, with the 3-1 by mid second time. Amarelle would take advantage of a little malfunction from the Brazilian defensive system to shorten the gap, but Bruno Xavier, at the very beginning of the last period, would establish the final 4-2 in a new flashing spectacle featuring some of the Beach Soccer biggest monsters all over the world.
