Love the headline, eurocentrism at it finest. Is the season who caused the injuries? Every World Cup in Winter is like this? South Africa, Brasil, Argentina, Chile and Uruguay world cups had more injuries them? Or it was the time of the year not related at all with the season (of course it was).

Until the 90s the best South American players played in their countries, and the WC was always midseason for Brazilians, it's a problem only when it happens with europeans? Pathetic
