They did worse when they were a unified country

Tbh it's about the same, Croatias done better at WC, Yugoslavias did better at Euro and had their second golden generation interrupted by politics.

Austria-Hungary would probably be the best soccer country in Europe if they still existed. Just look at what 5 different pieces of that empire have accomplished seperate. Little 1954 Hungary had the greatest individual team of all time. Only World Cup loser to beat the team that beat them in the same tournament.
 
And Neymar will never have the legacy to sit alongside Pele, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, etc.

<{coachie}>
I agree with the Ronaldo & Ronaldinho part. I don’t like comparing Pele to modern players, but it’s looking like Neymar won’t be having the same international pedigree.

Lol imagine if Spain and Portugal still kept their colonies in S.A. Africa and Flandes... What ifs are pointless
 
That was the tying goal. This is the PK

And I'm a Brazil fan

<FutbolThink><{you!}>

I would argue that Brazil hasn't had a true #9 since Adriano, or maybe even earlier with the fat Ronaldo

They should've spent more time practising PK rather than dancing

You right. Adriano was such a wasted talent. Also I remember Pato being the next big thing that flame out.
