Sem inferências, retoques e muito menos truques, jornal mais influente do planeta mostra a importância decisiva do futebol, da Seleção e da Copa do Mundo no Brasil como fatores de união nacional; explosão de alegria a cada gol da equipe na abertura do Mundial é mostrada de ponta a ponta do País, em diferentes estratos da sociedade; câmeras foram instaladas pelo NYT do Oiapoque a Porto Alegre; vídeo de repercussão global mostra o que a mídia tradicional brasileira não quis ver: povo de braços abertos festeja a #copadascopas (do Brasil 247):
247 – Considerado o jornal mais influente do mundo há muitos anos, o The New York Times acaba de dar uma lição de como fazer mídia. Sem retoques, artifícios e, muitos menos, truques, o setor eletrônico da publicação instalou câmeras automáticas para documentar a reação de brasileiros comuns, de ponta a ponta do País, durante a partida de abertura da Copa do Mundo, entre Brasil e Croácia. O que e se vê nas imagens da explosão de alegria a cada gol da Seleção Brasileira é uma festa real e autêntica, que ressalta a importância do futebol, da equipe nacional e da Copa do Mundo no Brasil como fatores imprescindíveis para a unidade de um país de território continental.
O vídeo do NYT mostra cenas das reações aos gols entre militares no Rio de Janeiro, aposentados em Porto Alegre e ribeirinhos do Oiapoque, no extremo norte do Brasil, entre outras. A reação é sempre a mesma, de incontida alegria. Exatamente como sempre acontece, aconteceu e continuará acontecendo. Ainda que, neste 2014, a mídia familiar e tradicional tenha se esforçado para desviar esse traço do caráter nacional, acentuando todos os problemas na organização do Mundial, que existem e estão ai, mas sem, no entanto, mostrar corretamente as qualidades da iniciativa. Na prática, boicotando-a.
Com o vídeo que repõe para o mundo, em milhões de reproduções, o inabalável amor dos brasileiros pelo seu time e seu País, o New York Times, sem uma usar uma única palavra, fez mesmo um golaço.

Brazil 2014: Three days in, and already set to be the best World Cup EVER
We're just three days into the World Cup, but already people are suggesting that Brazil 2014 is on course to be one of the greatest tournaments of all time.
It's a contentious point of view. Those of a certain age probably still hold Mexico 1970 in high regard, while USA '94 has plenty of misty-eyed supporters.
France '98 also had some memorable moments - and who could forget Italia '90, if just for Nessun Dorma alone?
But this year's tournament in Brazil has the potential to eclipse the lot of them.
Premature? Undoubtedly. Unjustified? Absolutely not. Here we present six reasons why it's right to believe the hype.
1. GOALS, GOALS, GOALS
The goalfest in Brazil has come as a welcome change after a horribly sterile group stage in South Africa four years ago, which was mostly notable for France going on strike and defending champions Italy failing to win a game.
In fact, after eight games, the 2014 World Cup has more than double the number of goals as its predecessor at the same stage.
Brazil 2014 is enjoying a remarkable 3.5 goals per game - a figure which has not been bettered since 1958 in Sweden, a tournament when French striker Just Fontaine managed to plunder 13 goals, seven more than Pele.
This makes Brazil 2014 the most prolific tournament of the modern era, averaging as much as goal a game more than three of the past six finals. Italia 1990 remains the nadir with a paltry 2.21 goals per game.
2. SHOCK RESULTS

Has there ever been a better group stage game than Netherlands' 5-1 rout of Spain? The margin of victory should not detract from the fact this was an all-time classic, filled with wonderful moments and one of the most iconic World Cup goals in Robin van Persie's diving lob header. The pure thrill of watching Arjen Robben charge through the defending champions made this a stunning night of football.

And what about upsetting the odds? Last night we saw Costa Rica engineer a massive shock in England's group as they defeated Uruguay 3-1 with another thrilling performance. Joel Campbell was the star of the show in a result which blew open one of the toughest groups and sent seismic waves through an already pulsating tournament.

A reminder: this tournament is only three days old. And the first day only had one game.
3. NO DRAWS, AND TOPSY-TURVY GAMES

Not a single game has ended in a draw yet in Brazil; South Africa 2010 started with one. A cultural swing towards attacking tactics - and sublime counter-attacking - has made this an unforgettable start with teams looking to take all three points from the off rather than try and hold onto one. And matches are swinging to and fro with regularity as well.

4. THE BIG NAMES ARE PERFORMING

Just look at the top scorers' list after three days: Robben, Van Persie and Neymar have two apiece and Alexis Sanchez has come to the party too with a goal and an assist from Chile. Andrea Pirlo put in another passing masterclass against England and Mario Balotelli took the man of the match award. The big players are stepping up to the stage without fear. No one has personified this trait more than Neymar, who responded to all the pressure on his shoulders with a brace in Brazil's 3-1 win over Croatia on the opening day.

5. IT'S IN BRAZIL

Forget the playing fields of public schools in England, Brazil is the real spiritual home of football. Against a backdrop of Rio's Sugarloaf Mountain and the Amazon rainforest, this tournament has bounced along to the stereotypical Samba beat which is said to infect this glorious, gigantic country. If you can't get up for a World Cup in Brazil - whether manager, player or fan - you need your pulse checking.
