Ahead of world's football super classic between Argentina and Brazil in Rosario on September 5, Brazilian fans voted which team have superior players, with results ending up rather even.

Lancenet! newspaper provided fans with the most probable starting lineup of both teams, with votes made for each of the 22 players in their respective positions. For instance, in the battle of the goalkeepers, Inter Milan's Julio César proved much superior to Mariano Andujar with 63.4% of the votes compared to 36.6% for his opposite number.

From the defense Brazil were clear victors, with five wins. Daniel Alves (55.1%) to Javier Zanetti, Juan (59.6%) to Gabriel Heinze, Lucio (61.2%) to Nicolás Burdisso and André Santos (56.1%) to Fabricio Coloccini.

Up front, Sevilla's Luis Fabiano (53.2%) beat Atletico Madrid's Sergio Aguero. But strangely enough, from then on the Argentines were victorious.

The most lopsided triumph was for Javier Mascherano (70.9%) against the unpopular Gilberto Silva. Maxi Rodríguez (52.4%) edged Felipe Melo, Jesús Dátolo (54.7%) beat Elano and Carlos Tévez (57.2%) got the better of Robinho.

Finally, in the battle of the superstars Lionel Messi (55.6%) proved too strong for Kaka.

Brazilian football supporters are well-known for being very critical of their national team, especially since Dunga was appointed coach.
