About Brazil at the 2026 World Cup
Brazil is the most decorated team in World Cup history with five titles (1958, 1962, 1970, 1994 and 2002). The Selecao arrives at the 2026 World Cup aiming to win the elusive sixth star and erase the trauma of the Mineirazo (7-1 against Germany in 2014). The new generation led by Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo and Endrick — all from Real Madrid — represents the most technically gifted and physically dominant attacking force in the tournament. Brazil always plays with the pressure of the favorite, backed by the largest fan base that will travel en masse to stadiums in the US and Mexico.
