World Cup Joke

It was just before England vs Brazil at the World Cup. Ronaldinho goes into the Brazilian changing room to find all his teammates looking a bit glum.
"What's up?" he asks.
"Well, we're having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know it's important but it's only England. They're shit and we can't be bothered." Ronaldinho looks at them and says "Well, I reckon I can beat them by myself, you lads go down to the pub!"
So Ronaldinho goes out to play England all by himself and the rest of the Brazilian team go off for a few drinks. After a few pints, they wonder how the game is going, so they get the landlord to put the teletext on. A big cheer goes up as the screen reads "Brazil 1 England 0 (Ronaldinho 10 minutes)". He is beating England all by himself!
Anyway, a few more pints later and the game is forgotten until someone remembers "It must be full time now, lets see how he got on". They put on the teletext once again "Result from the stadium "Brazil 1 (Ronaldinho 10 minutes), England 1 (Crouch 89 minutes)".
They can't believe it, he has single handedly got a draw against England!
They rush back to the stadium to congratulate Ronaldinho. They find him in the dressing room, still in his gear, sat with his head in his hands. He refuses to look at them. "I've let you down, I've let you down!"
"Don't be daft, you've got a draw against England, all by yourself! And they only scored at the very, very end!"
"No, no... I have let Brazil down.... I got sent off after 12 minutes!"
