Real talk, this Brazil loss might be the most devastating loss in the history of sports

[phillycavsfan]

- Brazilians love their soccer as we all know. More than any other country loves anything.
- It's a home game.
- They fukked their economy just to host the WC. Jacked up public transportation and gas costs, cut education and health care spending, displaced thousands of Brazilians living in favelas, rushed building much of the infrastructure needed to host it, and ignored the protests of millions of unhappy Brazilians.
- The last time they hosted the WC they lost 1-0 in the final and they've been waiting 64 years to host it again and win on home soil.
- They got their backs blown out.
- It's a legacy-changing loss. Everything, how they play the game, how they coach the game, how they develop their young players, will have to change.

I can't think of any L that compares to this. Shoutout to @AkaDemiK .

If Germans lose, they go back to having medical and work benefits, world class education, world class infrastructure, factories, vibrant economy, a government that works, labor rights, low corruption.

Brazil...well now they wake up to the state of their country, their new debt and the realization that they have to host the Summer Olympics in two years despire being far behind schedule on the venues and funding.

This loss isn't just a sports loss, it has real world implications.

Off the top I can't think of anything.

2004 USA Olympic team losing to Puerto Rico in a relative blowout was about as bad as it gets from an American basketball perspective though, but that wasn't in an actual tournament game.

Breh, football is everything in Brazil. It doesn't even compare.

They got what they deserved. If they won it all, they would've justified their inhumane immoral actions

My bad, dogg. I had the wrong bandwagon jumper in mind.

I'm no bandwagoner

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

I honestly can't think of any loss comparable to this...

What makes it such a devastating loss is the ridiculous score, they didn't just lose, they lost by an NFL touchdown...7-1 in futbol is like a basketball team winning by 75...You only see scores like that in friendlys, qualifiers and in the group stages but this shyt happened in the semis on home turf...To make matters worse everyone knows futbol is religion to these people, all they care about is this game...They sacrificed their economy for this tournament and all they got in return was humiliated on the biggest world stage...
