Maybe because, well I dont know....

-The US is the defending Olympic champion.
-The highest Brazil has finished in a World tournament this past decade is 8th.
-The US has a better world ranking than Brazil.
-Brazil hasnt beaten an US squad with NBA players in a long time(if ever).
-I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by switching to Geico.

You're really funny! Every encounter with PR v. Greece in recent years resulted in a double-digit victory for Greece. As for Lebanon beating Spain... no comment.
