Germany face Brazil on 10 August, 2011 at 19:45 GMT (20:45 CET) in
an International friendly match as a warm-up before the Euro Cup
Qualifiers. Germany is poised to host Brazil Mercedes Benz Arena in
Stuttgart and try to win their first match since 1993. The last time
Germany’s side defeated Brazil was in Cologne, 18 years ago. For their
part, the South American side have dominated encounters between the
countries down the years - winning 12 matches, drawing five and losing
just three from 20 meetings. Maybe, the most outstanding of those
victories was in the World Cup Final 2002 Japon-Korea when The
Canarinha won The Central Europeans with two goals of Ronaldo.
