FIFA recognizes Brazil as the great World quarry

The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) is in luck. FIFA has responded positively to his complaint about the World Cup count won by the lower teams after the restructuring of the youth tournaments. That places Brazil as the country with the most successful base: He has 9 World Cups, more than anyone, between the two official FIFA categories, U-17 and U-20.

The CBF had pointed out to FIFA that the grouping of the U-16 and U-17 titles had not been correct. On August 12, by letter, President Gianni Infantino agreed with him, confirming their tie at 4 U-17s with Nigeria. However, globally it is above …

Brazil can boast a total of 9 World Cups in the two official FIFA ages. His 'children', then, like his elders, are the ones who have celebrated the most conquests. They accumulate 14 World Cups, 5 of the absolute Pentacampeona and 9 of the cracks of the future.

The last achieved was the U-17 of 2019. It will go down in history for being the first in the category organized in Brazil and for the decisive role of Lázaro Vinicius, Flamengo's new jewel, who scored two decisive goals in the last minutes of the semifinal and final.
