199:, Brazil's first visibly black goalkeeper since Barbosa, Dida, asked the country to forgive the old man. Dida notes that Barbosa was voted the Number One keeper of the 1950 Cup, a testimony to his outstanding skills. "He did a lot for the Brazilian team but then he was crucified after the match. That was terrible," said Dida. "The fact that he was the number 1 shows he did a lot for Brazilian football. It is important to point out the good things he did."
163:"GOOOOL do Uruguay,' said Luiz Mendes, narrating for Rádio Globo, automatically and firmly. He repeated, asking in disbelief: 'Gol do Uruguay?' He answered himself: 'Gol do Uruguay!' He repeated the same three words six more times consecutively, each with completely different intonation - with various degrees of surprise, resignation and shock.."

role of scapegoat was to be sacrificed, to restore balance to the ruptured community. Barbosa fit the bill, and his dark skin capped the comparison, a stark reminder of the sin of losing. Barbosa was one of Brazil's few visibly black goalkeepers and Brazil was not to have another for 50 years.

Kennedy both have 'the same drama...the same movement, rhythm...the same precision of an inexorable trajectory...'They even share clouds of dust - one from a gun, one from Gigghia's left
181:"It continues being the most famous goal in the history of Brazilian football...because none other transcended its status as a sporting fact...converting itself into a historic moment in the life of a nation."
168:"Football's shrine was as quiet as a tomb. Gigghia said many years later: 'Only three people have, with just one motion, silenced the Maracanã: Frank Sinatra, Pope John Paul II and me."

The book details the soccer culture of Brazil often unforgiving of men it puts on a pedestal, and the absolute shock to the country and its people at the loss of the game.
