異域文化 世界杯的故事 World Cup Stories: Brazil-1
For 50 years Brazil have dominated international football.
5 times World Cup winners, no other nation has had so much success.
Absolutely brilliant!
Their yellow shirts have come to symbolize flamboyant football.
Brazilians aren't interested just in winning, they want to win with panache. They are lucky that they can choose.
But for Brazil, success has not come easily. Their World Cup history is dominated by one of the biggest upsets in the tournament's history.
I was an 11-year-old child. You don't know much about life, you don't know much about the world. At the end of that World Cup, I thought that the worst thing in the world had happened to me.
It was a trauma that would take years of soul searching to overcome. Soul searching and two of the greatest footballers the world had ever seen.
When Pele and Garrincha would play for the Brazilian team. Brazil never lost a match.
Pele was the first true professional, Brazil’s football ambassador.
Pele was a pro. I still believe that Pele is not from this planet. He came from somewhere.
Garrincha was the last amateur.
Garrincha shouldn’t really have played football, he was a cripple, illiterate, alcoholic.
He wasn't the sort of player who usually scored. Garrincha promised to score all those goals for me.
And there is Garincha, it’s a goal.
That is the generation which really turned Brazil from losers to the best football country in the world.
This is the story of how, driven on by these two unlikely heroes, Brazilian football overcame its biggest setback to become the gold standard against which all future winners of the World Cup would be judged.
