Michael W @mawilps Jun 27 This World Cup miniseries was very good. Lucas Agricola, Rodrigo Santoro, Bruno Mazzeo, Ravel Andrade, and the rest of the cast did a fanastic job in this miniseries. This true story about the 1970 Brazilian national soccer team winning the World Cup was dramatic, inspirational, and heartfelt. It's about conquering your demons, believing in yourselves and your teammates, overcoming the odds, and bringing hope and joy to your country. If you haven't seen this miniseries yet, check it out sometime. Even if you're not a soccer fan, you'll enjoy it. See more Read all reviews
