The five-time world champion, Brazil, is preparing to enter the scene in the World Cup 2026, the first edition with 48 teams and which is being held in Mexico, the United States and Canada. It will also be the longest tournament in history, lasting 39 days.
The Brazilian team, the biggest winner in the history of the World Cup, is about to begin its journey when it faces Morocco at the start of Group C. The Canarinha arrives in North America with the aim of lifting the most prestigious trophy in world football again, something it has not achieved for 24 years.
Their last title was in Korea-Japan 2002, when they beat Germany in the final to win their fifth championship. Brazil was also crowned on American soil in 1994, during the World Cup held in the United States, where it achieved its four-time championship.
Today, the time without titles once again reaches a figure similar to that recorded between 1970 and 1994, when they won their third and fourth titles, which increases the expectation and pressure on the South American team.
Now, under the direction of Carlo Ancelotti, the Brazilian team will seek to regain its reign. However, he will have to advance step by step, and his debut against Morocco will be a demanding test. The Moroccan team arrives with ambitions and with the memory of its historic performance in Qatar 2022, where it surprised the world by finishing in third place and consolidating itself as one of the revelation teams.
The match will not be easy for Verdeamarela, who will have to show their hierarchy from the first minute. The match is scheduled for 4:00 p.m. in Guatemala, this Saturday, June 13and will mark the beginning of the path for a Brazil that, as always, is among the favorites.
Will this be the tournament in which Brazil reigns again in world football or will the drought extend? The show is about to begin and history awaits a new chapter for the most successful team in the world.
