Don't let America's bad performance fool you. The Czechs are that good. I would think that with Koller healthy they could beat Brasil.

The Czechs lost twice to Holland in qualification, then beat Norway 1-0 1-0 in the two-legged playoff to qualify. They are a good team, but no Brazil. There are several teams in Europe that are better IMHO.

Of course, if Brazil insists on playing an old, slow and fat Ronaldo then they might not score enough to beat the Czechs or other good teams.

Yes the Czechs were much better at passing and ball control and had an overwhelming attack attitude. They challenged every US possession like it was their sole mission in life. It was obvious the Czechs came to win, and they made the USA team look like they were there to spend 90 minutes losing.
