With a change in the team - the input of Jadson in place of Robinho - Mano explained that since the last game, Brazil needed to strengthen the midfield to complement the work of Paulo Henrique Ganso.
"It was a tactical change in the safest because it offered more space", Mano said, without explaining if this formation will continue into the third round.


For the Brazilian goalkeeper Julio Cesar, the suffered 2-2 draw achieved by Brazil, on Saturday, "ended up being a wonderful result."
