Greetings.  I had planned to continue the 2012 Outlook series this week, with a look at the candidates for the right-back position, but I’ll hold off on that for a week.  I wanted to write a few thoughts about the big matchup over the weekend, Brazil versus Brazil…I mean, Milan versus Inter.  It was a fairly entertaining match, despite the scoreline.  Milan dominated most of the first half, but wayward finishing doomed them.  Inter was probably the better team in the 2 nd half, as Milan’s midfield began to come apart.  Inter generally looked to play on the counter throughout the game, and it was on the counter that they scored, with the much-maligned Diego Milito continuing his recent run of form.  But it’s not the teams as a whole that concern us, but the performances of our national team heroes.  Milan has always been the home away from home for Brazil’s greatest stars – think Cafu, Leonardo, Kaka, Dida, even Rivaldo; and Ronaldo, Lucio, Maicon, and Julio Cesar.
