Too bad Morris isn't within the team.

I would love to have seen Morris on the team also, but they have done well so far without him. I'll be watching the game against Ecuador tonight, flipping back and forth to the NBA Finals.
Brazil's exit was due to a Peru hand ball that was not called by the officials. Had the game ended in a tie, Brazil would have advanced to the Quarterfinals instead of Peru. Based on goal differential, they would probably have ended in first place instead of third and would be playing Colombia tomorrow night.
Geaux Cardinal!
