I will also tell you this: the Swedes really gave the Brazilians a run for their money in the most-fun-to-be-around department. I still think the Brazilian and Argentine fans are the most happy, though.

- The famous Brazilian samba fans sure have meant a lot to the success of their national team. Psychology means a lot in the field of sports and I think no one wishes to deny that teams who are backed up by the encouragement of an enthusiastic audience perform better than teams who are not.

Sweden is a very different culture from Brazil in most ways. Actually, some would say the US and Brazil have more in common than USA and Sweden when it comes to social behavior. I mean, strangers in fact talk to each other in the street, on the bus, in stores etc in both Brazil and in America..
