Bem-vindo a Selecao Bootcamp! It was Birthdays galore over the weekend as both Julio Cesar and Alexandre Pato celebrated their big days with their Brazilian teammates. Cesar was pelted with water and made to roll his face over the grass while Pato got a strawberry cake courtesy of the squad’s chef! I guess the ten-year difference between these two manos (22 and 32) decided the mode of celebration they deservedly received, jajaja! In that case, someone please hand Neymar a pacifier and a bag of Cheetos when his birthday comes round!
Onto more serious things (although nothing is ever serious in this team), Brazil will be playing Ghana tonight in a friendly at Craven Cottage Stadium. At last, the Brazilians have decided to leave the grass at the Emirates stadium alone to recuperate by itself, especially since they’ve been known to love it! Here’s a classic team photo – featuring a meek-looking Dinho by the corner.
