After the hit "Ai Se Eu Te Pego " (or "Oh If I Catch You"), soccer has helped popularize one more hit song at games recently. For that, it was enough to have Neymar place two fingers on his lips while celebrating the Brazilian goal against Australia on Saturday for the clip of the song called "Bigode Grosso" (or "Thick Mustache") from MC Marcelly, to became viral.
