Kaka - Brazil

Thinking ahead to the decisive World Cup qualifier between Brazil and Argentina in early September, Kaka only had harsh words for Los Albicelestes.

"Argentina aren't too well, while Brazil, with a victory, will qualify for the World Cup," said Kaka.

In the weeks leading up to the highly anticipated clash between the South American rivals in Rosario, Argentina, several players have had their say on the form of their respective team and that of their rivals.

Kaka's national team team-mate Robinho affirmed that if Brazil manage to play good football during the game, then they will move closer towards another World Cup appearance.

"We need to play well against Argentina, we need to claim a victory and pick up the three points," the Manchester City man said.

In recent weeks Diego Maradona, the coach of Argentina, had explained that the clash will be a "complicated" one, but that his squad will play their "hearts out" in search of victory.
