Brazil eliminated from 2026 World Cup after loss to Norway
Summary

Brazil's campaign in the 2026 World Cup ended with a 2-1 defeat to Norway. Erling Haaland scored both goals for Norway within the final ten minutes of the match. This loss marks Brazil's continued struggle in World Cup competitions, having not lifted the trophy since 2002. Brazil has been eliminated in the quarter-finals or worse in each of the last six tournaments. The team's inability to qualify against European opponents since 2002 raises questions about its stature in global football.
