This is a transcript of a soccer commentary in Portuguese, mixed with some unrelated conversations and noises. The commentary covers several games of the Brazilian national team in the 2014 World Cup, including their losses to Germany and the Netherlands, and their victories over Croatia, Cameroon and Chile. The commentary describes the goals, the players, the fouls, the penalties, the crowd reactions and the emotions of the game. It also mentions some historical facts, such as Brazil being the only five-time champion in the world and Pelé's injury in 1962. The transcript is very long and detailed, and sometimes hard to follow due to the fast pace and excitement of the commentator.
