The Brazil national football team is the national team of the world's most powerful

The common occurrence of football is: "the English invented it, perfected the Brazilians". And the joke is not far from the truth, it is generally considered that the Brazil national football team is the national team stronger in the world and is the only team to play in every event of the World Cup. With five FIFA world cup victories including the most recent in 2002, Brazil football team enjoys being the most successful football team.

Despite the dominance of the team in recent years, the national team of Brazil had serious performance problems in its early years. Brazil was far from being one of the richest countries in South America. The infighting and the lack of adequate funding resulted in the performance of the sub par team. In both 1930 and 1934 tournaments, the Brazil soccer team was beaten in the early stages, until it got the club back in 1938 Leonidas da Silva. But even so, the national team of Brazil was far from reputation, especially in that embarrassing moment when Brazil hosted the 1950 World Cup. Despite batteries of likely favorable in their favor, they still have a beating of Uruguay in a game later known as "Maracanzo."

When Pele joined the 1958 football team Brazil for the World Cup in Sweden, Brazil also made his first mark in history. Pele, along with other outstanding players such as Didi, Garrincha and Zito entered the tournament, Evert giants like Italy and Wales to beat Sweden in a 5-2 final match. Although be grouped with teams harder from the beginning including England, USSR and Austria, they managed to maintain relentless pressure. The Soviet Union match was known for the "greatest three minutes in the history of football" where Pelé gave Brazil the lead.

Years of football of Brazil was concerned again when political influences affected the national team of Brazil. They had the worst performance in all the world cups but Pelé playing most of the tournament.

Brazil's 1970 football team was considered the best national team ever. It was this time when Brazil also won his third title in the World Cup. With Pelé, Carlos Alberto, Jairzinho, Tostao, Gerson and Rivelino, Brazil won the Jules Rimet Trophy and keep it forever. This was also the last of the Pele World Cup appearance.

The success of the national team of Brazil was repeated 24 years later at the World Cup United States where won in a definition on penalties. It was then repeated in the Korea-Japan 2002 with the "three Rs." World Cup (Ronaldo, Rivaldo and Ronaldinho) raising the Brazilian flag.

It is often a case of amazement that the streets of Brazil could beat occasionally to an individual who would not fail to become one of the best players in football. Pele, Rivaldo and currently the best Ronaldo soccer player, all of them had their share of these streets. As to what these streets always remain as magic would be a mystery.
