Brazilian media blames Rolling Stones legend Mick Jagger for the World Cup loss
Brazilian fans nicknamed Jagger ‘pefrio’, a local term for a person who brings bad luck, because whenever he supported a team, it loses.

The singer was spotted in the crowd at the Mineirao stadium in Belo Horizonte supporting the hosts with his Brazilian son Lucas. Brazilian fans have nicknamed Jagger ‘pefrio’ — a local term for a person who brings bad luck — because every time he has announced his support for a team, that team loses.
Jagger told fans during a show in Rome that Italy would beat Uruguay — but the Italians were eliminated. He then told fans in Lisbon that Portugal would win the World Cup — they too lost.
And after rooting for England against Uruguay, Rooney and Co were sent packing. He also joined Bill Clinton to cheer on the US, who lost to Ghana in the second round.
