Gilberto in Brazil friendly
August 17, 2006
Gilberto was one of the Brazilian players from the world cup not to have been axed by new coach Dunga. Dunga is Gilberto’s childhood idol, so this is very nice for Bert. Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Emerson and R.Carlos were among the Brazilian stars not selected for the game.
Brazil played Norway in Oslo, and the game finished 1-1. About the only notable thing Gilberto did was not get injured. I suppose that’s good.
Gilberto will fly back to England today to start preparations with Arsenal for the Aston Villa game on Saturday. Go Bert.
