Brazil mens Olympic football team captain Neymar said that Thursdays 0-0 opening day draw against 10-man South Africa felt like a defeat.The host nation are huge favourites to take the gold medal at this summers Olympics in Rio de Janeiro and feature other big names such as Manchester Citys new ￡27 million signing Gabriel Jesus and Paris Saint-Germain centre-back Marquinhos, but Rogerio Micales side were unable to find a goal even after Mothobi Mvalas sending-off early in the second half.Speaking to Globoesporte after the game in Brasilia, Neymar admitted that nerves had played a part in the poor showing by his side, but said he was confident they would do better in Sundays second Group A game against Iraq.The first game is always the most difficult, for the nerves you have before you begin to play, he said. For us, the draw is like a defeat. We have to win, we know our responsibility. We will stay calm and get back to work again as soon as possible so that we play well on Sunday.Brazil come into the tournament under huge pressure, especially after the disappointment of the 2014 World Cup, when the hosts were embarrassed 7-1 by Germany in the semifinals.Neymar pointed out that no Brazil team has won an Olympic title, even with emerging stars including Romario, Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Roberto Carlos, Bebeto and Ronaldinho each taking part in at least one tournament.I dont know how many great Brazilians have played in the Olympics and not been able to win it, he said. We know this is not easy, we cannot just show up and take home the gold medal. We must play our football. We found it more difficult [tonight], and we must learn to overcome this.Against South Africa on Thursday, Jesus had an excellent chance to score midway through the second half, but hit the post from just 3 yards out. He told Globoesporte he said he was embarrassed at having missed such a simple chance and would find it hard to forget the moment.I had to score that goal, he said. I could not miss it. Im very upset, Im not going to sleep tonight. I keep thinking about it, watching it again and again. Its embarrassing. Yeezy 700 Static Online .

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Rescheduling the LSU-Florida game might not be as easy as it seems for the Southeastern Conference.The SEC postponed the game scheduled for Saturday because of Hurricane Matthew, which was bearing down Thursday on Floridas east coast. The league said it will work with both universities to reschedule the game later in the season, if possible.The schools have different opinions on how it should be handled, and ultimately the league will decide.The 18th-ranked Gators (4-1, 2-1 SEC) ideally would like to play the game Nov. 19 in Gainesville, a scenario that doesnt seem very attractive for the Tigers.Florida and LSU each play nonconference games at home that Saturday and would need to buy out those opponents, South Alabama for the Tigers and Presbyterian for the Gators. LSU (3-2, 2-1) would be on the hook for $1.5 million to South Alabama, and Florida would have to pay $500,000 to Presbyterian of the Football Championship Subdivision.Doing that would mean the Tigers would end the regular season with three consecutive road games -- against Arkansas (Nov. 12), Florida (Nov. 19) and Texas A&M (Nov. 24).We told the league were 100 percent committed to whatever scenario they can come up with, Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley said. Certainly we dont have a consistent open date. ... Its not as easy sometimes as it seems and involves other games, it involves other teams, it involves television contracts, whatever have you.Whatever scenario they come up with, were going to be in favor of. We want to play the football game.LSU would rather not play three straight league games on the road, especially considering the last one, against the Aggies, is during a shortened week. It also would mean giving up a home game and losing revenue for the school and the city.I havent come to a decision on that yet, but it would be pretty damn tough to play on the 19th and then play A&M on Thursday, so Ive got to do whats in the best interest of the team, LSU athletic director Joe Alleva said.The Tigers are likely to push for a cancellation of the game.The SEC has an insurance policy that covers lost game revenue for all 14 schools, but its unclear how much it would cover in this scenario.ddddddddddddTheres insurance and scenarios and TV and all those type of things, Foley said. Thats why it will be handled in the league. The money is not an issue. Can it be worked out? Those are conversations that you probably need to hold with the Southeastern Conference. If it can be worked out, well be thrilled, excited and ready to play that football game and I know our fans will be, too.LSU offered to host the game in Baton Rouge on Sunday or fly in and out of Gainesville that day, but Foley said it would be almost impossible to accommodate that request.To try to put a road trip together of 150-plus people in a day and half, not knowing the condition of the roads, not knowing the conditions of the airports, trying to get equipment out there, Foley said. Again, not in the best interest of safety, not in the best interest of people that would be involved in that trip. ... People in this state may be dealing with stuff that is far more significant, far more serious. So that really didnt work, either.I really understand the interest in the game, peoples desire to play the game. At the end of the day, we make these decisions based on what matters, and peoples safety is what matters. Thats why the decision was made as it did. It took as long as it did because a lot of moving parts.The biggest question surrounding the game if its not made up would be how it affects the SEC standings. If either team wins out, there could be potential ramifications for Auburn, Tennessee and maybe others. The SEC said Thursday that a team that finishes 6-1 in league play would go to the conference title game over a 6-2 team even if the 6-2 won a head-to-head matchup.They have to play that football game, Volunteers coach Butch Jones said. I know the SEC will do the right thing.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
