How Anglos contributed to Brazil's defeat: TV is where the money is. By packaging and selling TV rights, the English can pay gazillions to foreign players. Thus most good players migrate to gorge on that money. That means very few players playing in Brazil go to the World Cup. Nike, a big Anglo company, lavishes money in the Brazilian players too. Thus the Brazilian national team must play friendlies showing off the big names playing in Europe which in their turn sell lots and lots of shirts. Thus everybody is happy and pocketing a lot of money. Only that cannot play jogo bonito anymore.
