Brazil's National Sport

Soccer (Futbol) is the most popular sport in Brazil. I think that it shows alot about their culture because everyone is so passionate about it. Brazil has won the World Cup a record 5 times, more than any other nation in the world. Every year millions of Brazilians show immense amounts of pride in their nation during the soccer season. They dress up in head to toe yellow and green to show their loyalty to their country. I think the loyalty that Brazilian soccer fans show to their team is an excellent portrayal of the Brazilian culture.
