Every team that knocked Brazil out since 1938 ended up in the Top 3

Despite seemingly losing some respect among the general public in recent years, here's a Brazil World Cup fact that genuinely surprised me. Since 1938, every team that eliminated Brazil from a World Cup has finished in the Top 3. I had never noticed this before, and honestly, it's a pretty wild statistic. It made me look at some of Brazil's World Cup exits a bit differently. submitted by /u/felgrimfel [link] [comments]
