Ahead of the tournament, the Brazilian government announced that they would moveworking hours of thecivil service on the days of Brazil's matches in the World Cup, with the working day starting two hours after the scheduled conclusion of games; due to the time difference, Brazil's group matches were all kicked-off at commuter times.[3][4] This ended in vain, as Brazil was eliminated in the group stage for the first time since finishing bottom in1995. On the other hand, Jamaica became the first Caribbean team to advance from a senior World Cup group stage.
