The making of a Brazilian football team inspired by a win surprisingly in another sporting activity? (6,6)
I believe the answer is:
bikini waxing
'the making of a brazilian' is the definition.
(a bikini wax may create a 'Brazilian')
'football team inspired by a win surprisingly in another sporting activity?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'team' could be 'xi' (a football team, from Roman numerals for 11) and 'xi' is present in the answer.
an anagram of 'win' is 'niw' which is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
