Brazil is having very bad results, I am really afraid about Brazil not making the World Cup.

Brazil and Argentina drew 0-0 in a soccer World Cup qualifier as South American group leader Paraguay's unbeaten start to the campaign ended in Bolivia.

Lionel Messi missed two injury-time chances to break the deadlock in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, last night, as Argentina ended a run of three straight losses to its archrival. It was the first scoreless draw between the teams since 1988.

Argentina moved into second place in the 10-team standings on 11 points, two behind Paraguay, which lost 4-2 in La Paz. The top four after 18 home-and-away matches advance to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Third-place Colombia has 10 points and is the only unbeaten team left following its 0-0 draw in Ecuador yesterday. Record five-time champion Brazil, the only team to have played at all 18 previous World Cups, is in fourth spot with nine points.
