Why Brazil lost?

It was almost sure Brazil would win against Netherland in the quarter finals, today.  As the commentator said, “… it is almost as if Brazil had the right to win… and now they are flirting with defeat.” 

 

As the game evolved something became apparent that something was amiss in the Brazilian. 

 

The commentator kept saying, “… don’t write off the Brazilians as they have not reached this status just on no ground.” 

 

Yet as the Dutch scored the second goal, Brazil seemed just with not enough energy. 

 

How did this happen?  Losing was clearly by lack of energy.  But how did that happen? 

 

The fireballs that make a great team: the tough headed shark-like scorers were missing.  It just seemed no one was willing to die to get the goal through. 

 

The Brazilians made a strategic mistake in not trying hard to offset the balance when they had one goal more. 

 

In the end, brand is not everything. 

 

It just was that the visualization power of the Dutch was far greater than that of the Brazilians.  

 

So in the end, does a team make the players great or do great players make a team great?  Was Ronaldo playing today, would the results had been different? 

 

A more alert defense also would have helped Brazil. 

 

There were long passes, side passes, long shots, corners, but no shot or pass that resonated, “I am going to score anyhow.” 

 

The energy field of the Brazilians was too weak today.  Was it because of the coach?  Was it because of millions of people over-anticipating their victory, so much that they forgot the add on their energies? 

 

Were the Dutch, the underdog whom all gave energy? Of course in such case one has to have the means to absorb that energy.  They had. 

 

All said, the defeat of Brazil will be analysed from many perspectives.  I gave you one of energy fields.
