International friendlies: good start for Brazil

This week was one of the FIFA days with a lot of friendly games. Brazil managed to beat USA 2-0 in NY with a goal from Eymar and another from Pato. This is the first game with the new coach Mano Menezes. I didn't see the game but from what I read, Brazil had better attacking strategies, with quick plays but defence still a question mark.



Both Italy and Ivory Coast were consistent with their WC performance. Ivory won 1-0
For me, Ivory was the best team that didn't qualify to the second round.


England beat Hungary 2-1
Egypt beat Congo 6-3

Spain tied with Mexico 1-1



Also Ibra return to the Swedish national team was a good one, it took him only four minutes to score a gaol.
Sweden beat Scotland 3-0
