I had wondered about "The Selection" myself. But for you guys it makes sense There are at least half dozen Brazilians who would be in the top 20 best playes in the world. It is hard to argue against the name "The Selection" for such team :) That is funny. I had wondered about “The Selection” myself.

Here in Brazil we use the word Selection for our national team. But we use that word with other teams too, like "the Iranian selection". The country selects those players to fight for the title. But when it comes to our team, whe don't need to say "Brazil's selection", it's just THE SELECTION, he he he. Nice to know. Here in Brazil we use the word Selection for our national team.

Iran's team nickname seems very similar to my understanding of how Germany's team nickname is translated. If I remember correctly, "Die Mannschaft" basically means "the Team" for the Germans. But anyways, thanks again for answering my question... Thanks — I appreciate the explanation.
