For the people who follow soccer closely, is there a reason Brazil has gone downhill?

Or is it just bad luck?

And if you're *really* knowledgeable can you answer the same question about Italy and Germany lol

Soccer is the one sport where you can say the losing team was the better team without sounding like a whiny loser

Everyone clowned on the Cavs for their analytical series win (rightfully so) but sometimes it’s the right take in soccer.

Let’s see if MX can be the better team AND get the win in the second half!

Brazil getting knocked out of the World Cup hits just like Duke getting knocked out of the tourney

If you don't know about how baseball is currently being managed, look no further than the Marlins/A's game from today

Eury Pérez had pitched a perfect game through 7 innings with just 92 pitches. However the manager took him out after 7 to protect his arm or something. Marlins were winning 8-0, and won 9-8 after almost an all time collapse by the bullpen. You wouldn't see this 20 years ago.
