Brésil

Sélection à la une

Brazil arrive at the 2026 FIFA World Cup with the familiar weight of expectation—and a squad built to carry it. Five-time champions and forever the reference point for flair football, the Seleção have rebuilt around a core of Premier League and La Liga regulars while Carlo Ancelotti brings big-club tournament management to the national team setup.

Group C pairs Brazil with Morocco, Scotland, and Haiti. On paper Brazil should control possession and chance creation, but Morocco's run to the 2022 semifinals proved that African champions can compress space and punish transitions. Scotland's physicality and set-piece threat add another layer: this is not a group to sleepwalk through, even for a favorite.

Tactically, expect Brazil to prioritize width and quick combinations between midfield and attack. Alisson Becker remains the defensive anchor in goal, while the back line benefits from players accustomed to high lines at club level. In midfield, the balance between progression and screening will decide whether Brazil dominate or merely survive tight matches. Up front, the national team continues to search for a focal point who can link play and finish under pressure—a puzzle every Brazil coach since 2002 has faced.

Historically, Brazil's World Cup story is one of peaks and shocks: the joy of 2002, the heartbreak of 2014 at home, the redemption arc of recent cycles. For 2026, the narrative is renewal—new coach, evolving squad, and a North American stage that will feel different from European or Qatari summers. Fans worldwide will track every lineup announcement, every training clip, every rumor about who wears the number 10.
