Theory #3 = Brazil definitely better 1st half but didn't take their chances; sure there was a bad call on Robinho but didn't the USA suffer a couple of bad calls themselves as did England. Until video replay is introduced these farcical errors will continue to occur.
Theory #4 = Crap!
Theory #5 = Too big a gapo people loose interest. Wrong, Europe will always be as enthused to win as any South American team. I'm waiting for Ghana to win in 2014! The first African Champion can't be far off. It should really have been Ghana v Holland in the Final this time around. Ghana blew it. Penalty in the 120th minute...you gotta score!!
Having played myself, I recall going into halftime 1-0 up but for some reason the whole team fell apart in the second half even after we had been an inch away from going 2-0 up. We lost 7-1!!! It was a wake up call.
Theory #6 Losers always whine about a conspiracy.
Fact: Brazil fell apart because they didn't take their chances.
