Brazil Team Jet Leaves With Only One Player
After Brazil crashed out of the World Cup in the Round of 16, the kind of stunned reaction that can ripple through BD Cricket Live also surrounded the team’s awkward journey home. Brazil were eliminated after losing to Norway, and local reports said the squad began its return trip on the 7th. Yet the flight home produced an unexpectedly embarrassing scene: on the exclusive charter arranged by the Brazilian Football Confederation, only one player, Danilo, actually boarded the plane. The federation had prepared a long-haul charter from New Jersey in the United States, where Brazil had suffered their surprise defeat to Norway, directly to Rio de Janeiro. In the end, only 34-year-old Danilo chose to return to Brazil with the…
