Brazil striker Robinho has launched a late attempt to lower the fans’ expectations ahead of the upcoming World Cup qualifier with Venezuela.

The forward, who recently made a much debated move to Manchester City, commented on the match saying that “people aren’t showing respect for Venezuela”.

“Probably because that country has less history. But this Brazil can lose to anyone,” he added.

“Every match is different. This game is another chapter and Brazil will have to be very well prepared.”

The Brazilians are currently second in the South American qualification group, at four points from leaders Paraguay, who in turn face Colombia on Saturday.
