Poor old Fred is getting unfair stick now. Luis was ****ing **** too, but Fred is being scapegoated for poor performances at a level way above him, when he should never have been picked.
This argument is too ridiculous. You have been overcome in the discussion, so now trying to turn the discussion about the words 'impossible' and 'rarely happens'. As you said, this isn't an rocket science. So the use of the word 'impossible' or 'rarely happens' has the same meaning. The point is that it's something that happens more easily in football than rugby, is common in football and is rare in rugby. So I still have reason and yet I hope your examples.
Now if you want to turn this into a discussion about: 'Hey, you first said that it's impossible. Now you say it rarely happens, you're changing your speech'. Go ahead, we all know that for the point I'm expounding, both words have the same meaning. You've lost the discussion, but if it makes you happy. You can say I'm wrong because first I said impossible and then I said rarely, that's a very clever argument.
Yeah, There are many examples of very weak teams like Namibia or Uruguay, which beat a Tier 1 team and then won a championship such as: Italy 1982, Greece 2004, Italy 2006, Velez Sarfield (Copa Libertadores 94), Once Caldas (Copa Libertadores 2004), Argentinos Juniors (Copa Libertadores 1985) and others.
My apologies to Brazil. It is improper for a guest to humiliate their host in such a manner.
