Brazil disappoints again in men’s soccer, draws Iraq 0-0 (Yahoo Sports)
Disappointed yet again, the Brazilian fans jeered their own team and saved their applause for Iraq. Brazil, which has never won the Olympic gold medal in men’s soccer, failed to win for the second consecutive game, held to a 0-0 draw by the Iraqis on Sunday. The result leaves Brazil tied for second place in Group A. The team needs a victory over Denmark on Wednesday in Salvador to advance and avoid another huge embarrassment at home two years after the 7-1 loss to Germany in the World Cup semifinals.
