Bom dia! Day Four of the Soldados Bootcamp and the Argentinean Spiderman welcomes you with open arms! Yes, the fans went out in full force to buy tickets yesterday. A few succeeded, the rest didn’t but who cares when you have Spiderman in your queue?
Anyway, the Argentineans have been very calm about the prospect of facing their biggest football rivals so far. “We saw them waving positively when the bus arrived, they took photos and recognised us as a team with prestige in world football,” said our amigo in the team.

The selecao had an interesting mini game yesterday. The team was divided into 2 – led by ‘Captain Kaka’ and ‘Captain Robinho’. As usual, there were jokes aplenty, when Robinho’s team won 8-4.
Dani Alves, who was on Kaka’s losing side, complained : “Our team has not kicked in a goal but all we do is play, play, play. We’re like Exalta Samba!” (Brazilian pagoda musical group). Teased Luisão : “You’re getting boring!”
Kaka conceded defeat and when asked who was the worst player (again) in his team, he muttered : “At dinner, you will know …” Meanwhile, Gilberto Silva was happy with his performance. “The Gunner’s back! I scored three goals and also made two assists for two more,” he declared.
