With only three goals having been scored in the opening four matches, the competition is as bad as the South African World Cup ... the WORST World Cup EVER!
What has happened to international football in recent years?
Do you remember when Brazil were guaranteed to impressed? Not any more.
Brazil made a tame start to their Copa America Group B campaign after being held to a goalless draw by Venezuela at La Plata on Sunday.
The five-time world champions spurned several chances but their samba style was in scant supply at the Estadio Unico, with opposing boss Cesar Farias' decision to pack his midfield worked.
The Brazilians had won all five previous meetings between the sides, scoring 25 goals and conceding just once, but last night they looked as average as the other seven sides we have seen.

FOREWORD BY FAIRS CUP HERO JOHN McNAMEE
Sports Journalist Richie Everson: "At last a book that the fabulous Newcastle United fans can relate to. It's informative, all the facts and figures are there, plus the 120 match reports from all the fixtures ... but it is the articles by the supporters that amazed me.
"I went to many of those games, and this is the only book I can honestly say 'hits the nail on the head'!
"Yes we know the results and the scorers, but some of the facts in this book had me so wrapped up in it I couldn't put it down.
"Was Benny Arentoft cup-tied when he played in the final? Big Wyn and his battle with John McGrath; McFaul scoring a penalty when the crowd had gone home; the trouble in Palermo; it is all amazing stuff.
"I would honestly give this book 10 out of 10."
