Brazil is beginning to think the unthinkable. Ecuador remains ecstatic. Peru has reason to hope. And the United States is sitting prettier than ever. Though four of its final six games are on the road, watch for Ecuador to make its first World Cup.
Brazil is in trouble.
Not good enough. Fans began jeering in the 20th minute. When Peru scored, angry fans tossed Brazilian flags on the field. The Brazilians are only two points ahead of Colombia and three ahead of Uruguay, whom they play in Montevideo in their next game, July 1. The top four teams in the region qualify for next year's World Cup.
