How quickly a phrase can take on a different meaning

"just like watching Brazil" !! - used to mean a team was playing out of its skin..............

The best comparison I have heard was from Scotland, where Cowdenbeath like to be known as "The Blue Brazil".
From now on, Brazil are to be known as "The Yellow Cowdenbeath"

The Brazil formation can be adopted by any team that gets three defenders sent off in a match and plays one at the back.

Wow, we played like Brazil a few times last season. I think our most Brazil-like performance was home against Chesterfield.

England's cricketers are playing like Brazil at Trent Bridge...
