Why should you get excited about Egypt vs. Brazil? Well, if you're not that into Bob Bradley and Egypt (and there's no harm in that) this game is still worth your attention, because Brazil are playing the most Brazilian lineup we've seen in ages. A defence featuring the attack-happy trio of Dani Alves, David Luiz and Adriano? Yes please - it's not often you see a back line more capable on the attack than a midfield. Bruno Cesar, Jones and Hulk up front? That's drool-worthy.
