Some video producer has been plotting this since the weekend.
At the end of Brazil's record-breaking defeat to Germany - which, if you've been living under a rock, was a whopping 7 — 1 humiliation – RTÉ ran their usual montage of moments.
They needed a song perfectly fitting to the lost opportunity and heartbreak, with a touch of wistfulness. They chose Garth Brooks.
Sneaky sneaky.
The Dance, of course, contains the classic lyrics "I'm glad I didn't know / The way it all would end, the way it all would go" - which we're sure reflects the Brazil team's state of mind.
