In the middle of a highly competitive match, Brazil disappointed their fans, suffering a 2-0 defeat to Erling Haaland's Norway. As a result, many supporters are questioning whether this is the worst World Cup elimination in the nation's history. Brazil entered the 2026 World Cup as one of the clear top contenders under Carlo Ancelotti. They were looking to impress against Norway. However, they failed to impose their high press and dominate possession. On top of that, their lack of efficiency in front of goal prevented them from becoming the protagonists throughout the match, as they were eliminated after a 2–1 defeat vs Norway, producing one of the worst performances in their history at the tournament. Throughout the last several World Cup editions, Brazil had become a regular quarterfinalist, reaching two consecutive finals and one semifinal. Following Carlo Ancelotti’s arrival, they appeared to regain hope after impressing in the friendlies and refreshing their roster with young talent. However, they failed to produce truly convincing performances in the knockout stage, as they were eliminated by Norway in the Round of 16. In the early eras of the World Cup, Brazil’s worst appearances were in 1930 and 1966, eliminated in the group stage. However, matched their worst performance in the modern history of the World Cup after being eliminated by Norway, equaling their 1990 campaign. As a result, they ended a 36-year streak during which their worst finish at the tournament had been the quarterfinals. While they suffered a 7-1 defeat to Germany in the 2014 World Cup semifinals, Brazil still reached the final four and remained title contenders until the latter stages. To solve the team’s long-standing problems, Carlo Ancelotti arrived as the answer. However, his changes have ultimately failed to convince. Not only were they ineffective, but they also failed to maintain an exciting attacking style of play. In their last two matches, they were outplayed by their opponents. Neymar Jr #10 of Brazil is consoled by Raphinha #11. Brazil’s 24-year World Cup title drought continue Under head coach Mário Jorge Lobo Zagallo, Brazil reached the final of the 1998 World Cup, where Ronaldo Nazário, Rivaldo, Roberto Carlos, Cafu, and several other legends starred. Although they were defeated by France in the final, they enjoyed an outstanding tournament. At the 2002 edition, head coach Luiz Felipe Scolari led them to the World Cup title. Since that final, however, they have gone on to disappoint edition after edition. Brazil have now gone six consecutive World Cup editions without even reaching the final. Their best performance came in the 2014 edition, when they reached the semifinals as the host nation. Rather than opting for a complete roster overhaul, Ancelotti chose to keep several veterans. Because of this, they now appear to be forced into a drastic rebuild ahead of the 2030 World Cup, as several of those veterans will no longer be part of the squad.
As the 2026 World Cup approaches, expectations are high for Brazil and Vinícius Jr., as they are expected to deliver an imposing performance. However, 2002 World Cup-winning coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has revealed that he does not consider the 25-year-old star to be the team’s main leader. Vinícius Jr. has become one of the best players in the world, shining with Real Madrid. Despite this, he has always been heavily debated with Brazil, as he has not managed to deliver a similar impact to the one he has at club level. Adding further depth to the criticism, 2002 World Cup-winning head coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has admitted that he does not consider the 25-year-old star as the main figure, pointing to Argentina as a key example. “I don’t see Vinicius Jr. as a main figure for Brazil. The main thing for Brazil is to do what Argentina’s head coach did. He put everyone in a position to understand that they had a star: Messi. Get the ball to Messi. We’re not going to be better than Messi, so we’ll do what’s best for Messi, and Argentina became champions… I think it’s important to have a single player who is aware of his qualities and can help the team,” Scolari said, via DSports. Unlike previous generations of Brazil, there is no longer a clear main star due to Neymar Jr.’s absence. While earlier eras featured Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Romário, and others, the national team is not at its best right now, forcing them to adjust their approach and focus on collective play as their main strength. Although Vinicius Jr. shines at Real Madrid, he has not managed to replicate that level with the national team. Across his 48 matches for Brazil, Vini Jr. has recorded just 8 goals and 8 assists, making him more of a secondary figure. Despite this, the arrival of Ancelotti could help unlock his best version, with the 2026 World Cup serving as a platform to boost his legacy and establish as the undisputed leader. However, Carlo has decided that his team will not revolve around any single player, but rather around a collective idea, making everyone important. Vinicius Junior is subbed off by Carlo Ancelotti, Head Coach of Brazil. Vinicius Jr. and Raphinha aim to lead Brazil at the 2026 World Cup Following Carlo Ancelotti’s arrival, Brazil have significantly improved their competitiveness ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Not only do they now have a clear collective playing identity, but they have also improved considerably on the defensive end. However, they have already lost several players such as Rodrygo Goes and Éder Militão, along with uncertainties surrounding Estêvão. In response, Vinícius Jr. and Raphinha are expected to lead the team’s attack. Ancelotti has decided to rely on Vinícius Jr. and Raphinha as his difference-makers, giving them creative freedom. However, Brazil do not play to maximize their individual strengths; instead, both are aimed to boost the collective play with their talent, making them central axis. With this approach, they could bring out the best in João Pedro or Endrick, or allow others to stand out, but always with a clear principle: Collective play over individual qualities.
