'A beautiful moment of comic genius from Steve Claridge, the 'co-commentator' with Adam Burton for Bravo's coverage of Brazil v Chile...
Claridge: "Who's that Brazilian who plays in midfield and looks like Juninho?"
Burton: "I'm not sure."
Claridge: "He plays in midfield. And he looks like Juninho."
Burton: "Um...I'm really not sure who you mean."
Claridge: "The Brazilian who plays for Barcelona in midfield and he looks a bit like Juninho."
Burton (the horrible truth beginning to dawn): "Ah...I think I know who you mean. I think you mean Deco."
Claridge: "That's him."
Burton: "Except that he plays for Portugal."
Claridge (ignoring his moronic mistake and oblivious to the fact that he is now sounding increasingly like a slightly sozzled buffoon): "I keep thinking he's called Dido or Dada, or something."
And then there was silence.'
