...coach. Parreira knows exactly how hard it can be to please his football-mad countrymen: he once said the national team has 170 million coaches. But few can argue with his record. Besides, superstitious Brazilians will remember what happened the last time the country changed coaches on the eve of the Cup, in 1970: the new man, Mario Zagalo, led the side to victory...
