north of Brazil is pretty hot even on winter.
but the problem is the gametime. It's absurd to have games played at 1pm. Obviously at this time no one pays football in Brazil. Not even fun playing with friends is played at this time. It makes a huge difference.
The ideal would that games could be played at 4pm and 6pm. This is on FIFA, not on the country climate, which at 4pm, even at the hottest places at winter, is doable. At 1pm it's not.
Actually eveything is falling in place for Argentina. I wonder how many times they played at the north. How many km have they traveled? Probably the team with the softest schedule, with the best venues, with the shittier group, and the best drawing until semifinal. It's everything beautifully set so they can win it all and Messi to score 8-10 goals.
