It's like the Hawks Vs. Calgary. Chicago is bigger, stronger and more talented, thus, they dominate. Chile is talented but still young (5 of their starters were at the under 20 World Championship in Toronto 3 years ago) and they are small. Sadly, Brazil is the total package and has more quality.

How about that South American domination? 4 of the 5 are in to the final 8 and it would have been 5 if Chile didn't matchup against Brazil. I'm confident Chile could have won an elimination game against a team like the US, Ghana, Japan, Slovakia or South Korea.
