Brazil's catastrophic World Cup run 😞

Brazil's catastrophic World Cup run 😞 The old world? A thunderbolt has struck the football planet this Sunday evening: Brazil have been eliminated from the 2026 World Cup! Norway brought down the five-time world champions (2-1) thanks to a brace scored ten minutes from time by their superstar, Erling Haaland. Yet another disappointment for the “country of football,” which just can’t get it done in the World Cup anymore. Since 2002, the year of their last star, the Seleção have never again managed to qualify against a European nation! This also makes it six straight editions without Brazil being crowned champions, something that had never happened before in football history. Until this Sunday, the Auriverdes had won at least one World Cup every six editions. In recent times, the record is equally frightening:  2022: eliminated in the quarter-finals 2018: eliminated in the quarter-finals 2014: eliminated 7-1 at home in the semi-finals 2010: eliminated in the quarter-finals 2006: eliminated in the quarter-finals Do you still consider Brazil a great football nation?
