In the U.S. or Europe, the admission of such chicanery in pursuit of a hallowed sports milestone would likely be condemned as unscrupulous, if not immoral. But in Brazil, where the original malandros of samba songs were celebrated for their ability to triumph through deceit and cunning, Romario remains a hero - or, at worst...
