Brazil make their World Cup debut this Saturday (13)

The Brazil National Team take the field this Saturday (13), when they face Morocco in the opening round of the World Cup group stage. In search of a sixth world title, Brazil are relying on a 92-year unbeaten run to get off to a flying start in the tournament.

The reason is that the last time Brazil lost their first World Cup match was in 1934, in the tournament’s second edition. On that occasion, Spain beat the Brazil National Team 3-1 at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium in Italy. Since then, the Seleção have recorded 17 wins and three draws in opening matches, with an 81.8% success rate.
