Brazil Football Formation
Lineup (4-2-2-2)
Valdir Peres · Luizinho · Oscar · Leandro · Júnior · Falcão · Toninho Cerezo · Zico · Sócrates (c) · Éder · CarecaBrazil 1982 - The most beautiful Football playing team
This could have been the better version than what Telê Santana had to field in 1982. Due to Careca and Reinaldo not being fit, Santana had to pick Serginho instead. Still they produced the greatest exhibition of Football, since 1970's Brazil, and only to be seen again in 2002, and again by another Brazilian side only.
The 1982 side of Brazil is often hailed as the greatest team to not have won the World Cup, alongside Hungary of 1954 and Holland of 1974.
Had Careca been in the team, things could have been different, and they could have won, who knows?
The Brazil of 1982 produced the most exhilarating football the World Cup had known since 1970. They beat the USSR 2-1, swatted aside Scotland 4-1 and New Zealand 4-0, playing an effortless, fluid game full of deliciously angled passes and fearsome long-range shooting. In the second group phase, they comfortably beat the reigning world champions Argentina, leaving them needing just a draw against Italy to reach the semi-finals. It was considered a
formality, only to be resulted in a heartbreak....
