The Brazilian team may face England in the World Cup quarterfinals 2026. This happened in four of the five World Cup titles won by Brazil.
What happened?
The history between the teams is brief, but filled with historic moments — and with a pattern that draws attention: every time Brazil faced the English in a World Cup, Brazil was the champion.
Why is this important?
The first chapter occurred in 1958, in Sweden, when Brazil and England drew 0-0 in the group stage. It was a tight game, but it was part of the campaign that would culminate in Brazil's first World Cup title, with Pelé emerging onto the world stage.
| Date | Score | Result |

| 1962 | 3-1 | Brazil win |
| 1970 | 1-0 | Brazil win |
| 2002 | 2-1 | Brazil win |
What comes next?
The Brazilian team needs to confirm its qualification over Japan and then advance to the round of 16, against Norway or Ivory Coast. On the other hand, the English also need to secure their spots in the next stage of the competition.
Last result: Brazil 1-1 Tunisia (2025-11-18). Recent form (last 4 games): 2W-1D-1L (DWLW, most recent first).
