The US authorities approached the "Seleção" with maximum rigor: absolutely everyone, including top players, coaching staff, and support personnel, underwent strict checks. Brazil’s stars had to pass through metal detectors, submit all their luggage and personal items for thorough scanning, and even remove their shoes for in-depth inspection—just like everyone else.

Despite the obvious discomfort, hours-long delays in the airport terminal, and the astonishment of the South American giants, the Brazilian delegation had no choice but to comply with all the demands of the host nation.
