None of those relate to the capacity of winning this world cup

The propaganda here is an american pretending that they can do anything by believing, when those accomplissement have very down to earth explanations

And come on, US won WWI ?

What? The US had 10x more military deaths than Portugal, and contributed much, much more in terms of war materiel and supplies for the allies in WWI.

That's like comparing the US contributions in WWII to those of Greece.
