Chile's Attempt to Take Down Brazil

Chile's attempt to defeat Brazil and prevent them from reaching the World Cup is explored in this podcast episode. The game took place in Santiago, Chile, and tensions were high as Chile aimed to make history by stopping Brazil. The match was filled with intense moments, including fights between players and controversial decisions by referees. Despite their efforts, Chile only managed to draw with Brazil in the first game. The second match, held in Brazil, saw Chile desperately trying to score two goals to secure an upset victory. However, after an incident involving a flare thrown onto the field, Chile's captain, Roberto Rojas, faked an injury and the team abandoned the game.
