FIFA World Cup Brazil’s Record
Historical Events
No nation has dominated the World Cup as much as Brazil throughout its history. They have won five World Cups since 1930, which includes a run of three World Cups in four tournaments between 1958 and 1970. They have also finished as runners-up on two occasions, including in 1998 when they were beaten 3-0 in the final by France.
Furthermore, the Brazil World Cup stats also show that they have competed in the match for third place on four occasions, finishing third twice and fourth twice. Their most recent showing in that match came in their home World Cup in 2014, but they were beaten by the Netherlands in the match for third.
How well have they done in previous World Cups?
It almost beggars belief that it has been 20 years since Brazil last won the World Cup. Their previous success came back in 2002, as they won all seven games that they played. Ronaldo was the hero in that recent win, as he scored both goals in a 2-0 success against Germany.
However, the quarterfinals have been the stumbling block regularly since that success, as they have exited at that stage in three of the four previous tournaments. Their best recent showing came as they finished fourth in the 2014 World Cup. In 2018, the Brazil stats show that they recorded a victory against Mexico in the round of 16, before being beaten by Belgium 2-1 in the quarterfinals.
Who are the best historical players of Brazil?
The list of legendary players to have represented Brazil throughout their careers is endless. No player has appeared for the national side on more occasions than 2002 World Cup-winning captain Cafu. The right-back played for his national side on 142 occasions, which includes appearances at the World Cups in 1994, 1998, 2002, and 2006.
Only six other players have represented Brazil at four different World Cups, including Pele, Ronaldo, and Nilton Santos. The highest scorer in Brazilian history is the legendary Pele. The forward scored 77 goals for his national side. Meanwhile, Ronaldo holds the record for most goals in World Cups, as he netted 15 times.
Brazil Fun Facts In Previous World Cups
The Brazil stats at the World Cup are extremely strong. They have the best record in the history of the competition, as they have won 73 times from 109 games. Brazil is also the only nation to have played in every edition of the competition since 1930.
Brazil has only failed to beat three opponents that they have come up against at the World Cup, that includes their Group G rivals Switzerland, as well as Portugal and Hungary. Despite the number of Brazilian players that now play in Europe, Botafogo is the club that has provided more World Cup players for the nation throughout history, with 47 players playing their club soccer for the Brazilian giants.
