Team Brazil will not go to the second round in FIFA World Cup 2006 in Germany, because the team has not experienced any meaningful send-off games at all.

[Brazil Weakened in FIFA World Cup Germany 2006! Because of Lack of Send-Off Games.]
_
Send-off games or international A-matches before FIFA World Cup Final should be important for 32 qualified national teams to check their own weak points.
_
( < http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/ > )
_
And so, most of the 32 teams have made such matches against other national teams which are strong enough to participate in the world football or soccer final events.
_
For example, Team Germany made a game, in order to know what they were, on May 30, 2006 against Team Japan, which became the best 16 in FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan four years ago, and which ranked No.18 in FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking in May 2006.

_
Of course, all German main players took part in the game; because the team wanted to know whether collaboration between the main players work well in front of strong enemies.
_
In this game, Japan did get two goals. But, thanks to Japan, Germany could discover its hidden weak points between several German defenders, and could think solutions.       
_
Team Spain made such a game with Team Croatia ranking #23, so did Team Argentina with Team Angola ranking #57.
( < http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/w/sc/detail.html?id=2668572&year=2006&month=6&day=7 >  < http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/w/sc/detail.html?id=2652753&year=2006&month=5&day=30 > )
_
But, Team Brazil has never made such games this year.
_
Indeed Brazil made two A-matches this year before the main events of World Cup.
On March 1, 2006, or the international match day, Brazil made such a match with Russia.
( < http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/w/sc/detail.html?id=2598009&year=2006&month=3&day=1 > )
But then two Brazilian main players, Ronaldinho and De Souza Robinho did not participate in the match.
_
And the last A-match of Brazil before World Cup Germany was a non-precious test match on June 4 against New Zealand or NZL, which does rank #118 and should be weak enough to be unable to qualify the World Cup Final.
_
( < http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/w/sc/detail.html?id=2631506&year=2006&month=6&day=4 > )
_
On the day, Team Brazil could not know what thet they were, because Team NZL was too weak to reveal weak points of collaboration between Ronaldinho, Robinho and other Brazilian main players.
_
National teams are different from club teams.
A club should be strong, if it gets many super stars.
The more super stars participate in the club, the stronger it becomes.
_
But, not like a club team which belongs to a certain yearly league in a certain country, a national team is a temporary task force, in which teammates do not know very well each other.
Such a team needs some send-off games for such teammates to know themselves and to make relationships for their collaboration.
_
For your information, in the World Baseball Classic or WBC, in March 2006, Team USA, which consisted of many baseball super stars like Alex Rodriguez of New York Yankees and others, was beaten by "weak" national teams of Canada, South Korea, and Mexico, That's why the three teams' "ordinary" players, not like super stars of USA, had made good preparations before the world baseball final event.

_
Unlike Germany, Spain, Argentina and almost all other national teams, Brazil does not know what they are.
For example, Ronaldinho, who usually plays in Barcelona, does not perfectly know Robinho's latest peculiarities, because Robinho usually plays in Real Madrid.
And therefore, Ronaldinho does not know the best way to give a pass to Robinho when he is surround by strong enemies, not by weak ones like NZL's defenders. Like them, Brazilian defenders do not know their best collaborative formation at all.
_
Brazil will know what their weak points are, after the first game of World Cup Germany against Croatia.
_
Accordingly, Brazil will be beaten by Croatia on June 13, 2006, and you will find by June 22, 2006 that the team is not strong enough to survive its group league.
_
Team Brazil should be beaten twice or so in the Group F, and the team should finally rank third or fourth in it.
_
This is my prophecy.
