After a draw with Ecuador a few days ago, the Brazilian team had an important 1-0 victory over Paraguay in the 16th round of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Vinicius Junior played the hero role with the only goal in the 44th minute after a cross from Matheus Cunha, bringing complete joy to Brazil.
This is also the first victory of the Brazilian team under new coach Carlo Ancelotti.
This result helps Selecao officially win a ticket to the 2026 World Cup finals two matches early.
After 16 matches, Brazil has 25 points, 7 points more than the team holding the play-off spot, Venezuela, with only two more matches left in the qualifying round.
Thus, Brazil has become the second representative of South America after Argentina to win the right to attend the biggest football festival on the planet in North America next year.
Up to now, the 2026 World Cup finals have officially determined the 12 participating teams.
The 12 teams include three co-hosts, the United States, Mexico and Canada. The six Asian representatives are Iran, Uzbekistan, South Korea, Jordan, Japan and Australia. South America has two teams, Brazil and Argentina, while Oceania is represented by New Zealand./.
