Brazil Vs Ivory Coast

Latest Update News About Brazil Vs Ivory Coast: Ivory Coast are set to start Didier Drogba against Brazil in their World Cup 2010 finals online live Group G match that could decide the eventual winners of the Group of Death in South Africa.The Ivory Coast star broke his arm after a challenge from Japan defender Tulio in a warmup friendly and was initially feared to miss the whole tournament. However, emergency surgery has since allowed the player to return to training and Drogba came on as a substitute against Portugal wearing a cast which has since come under criticism from their opening opponents.

Brazil could yet dispute the presence of Drogba in the game but the South Americans are unlikely to prevent the Chelsea star from featuring.

Drogba is understandably below his best carrying the injury but with him in the side, Ivory Coast are likelier to score against the defensively tougher Brazil side that will not sacrifice solidity for flair under current boss Dunga.

The African team's boss Sven Goran Eriksson will not reveal too much prior to the game but hinted that the striker could start against Brazil, while remaining confident of upsetting the South Americans.

"It wouldn't be surprising if Drogba plays from the start against Brazil," said Eriksson. "He came on for 25 minutes against Portugal and it went well. It is going to be a difficult game, but looking at what we did against Portugal, we are capable of creating a surprise."

Meanwhile, there is growing dissent within the Ivory Coast squad after it was revealed that Drogba is no more than a "guest" amongst his other team mates, as he grew up in France from young. The players, notably Kolo Toure, are also unhappy that the Premier League star tried to appoint Guus Hiddink as the new national team boss solely based on his own preferences.

"Toure was unhappy that Drogba wanted to arrange the next manager," said the Ivory Coast media officer, Angenor Ghani. "It would have been difficult for us to appoint him as the old ASEC players wanted (former ASEC coach) Philippe Troussier to be manager. They think if one player can have a say, they should have one also."

Prediction: Brazil are clearly the better team here even though Ivory Coast may have the physical presence. The South Americans also have individual talent in every position compared to the Africans. Take Brazil on the Asian Handicap at -0.5, -1 as they are certain to win, but just.
