I think it must just be the case that God or at least the "God of Football" is Brazilian.

I just watched highlights of Brazil v the USA in the U20 World Cup. Had Brazil got the equaliser they were so clearly striving for they would've finished second in their group & faced Argentina next. As it is they are third & still allegedly "sweating on qualification". I'll be amazed if they don't make it though. It's not yet clear who they will face but the way things have been going for them I wouldn't be surprised if Chile (who I haven't seen much of but look impressive) put out a reserve side & lose to Austria (who are pretty poor & would be the perfect opponent in the last 16)...
