And all of a sudden, the run is over. Dunga and Brazil's stretch of 11 successive wins was brought to an abrupt halt on Wednesday night by Colombia, whose 1-0 win in Santiago, Chile, left Group C in this Copa America wide open.
With Peru and Venezuela playing on Thursday evening, there is the possibility of all four sides sitting on three points after two games, should the former manage to win.
From the Selecao's point of view, it is a wasted opportunity to take charge of a group following Colombia's shock defeat to Venezuela last weekend.
