Is there a football nation which Brazil has never won against? :idea2:
Maybe a nation that Brazil has never played against? ~;)
Well this question overruns me. :shame:
The Shetlands? :inquisitive:
Well Many, just because they never played against them. I do know tough that they couldn't beat Norwege 4 times in a row.Quote:

Ask the Guardian Football Knowledge team!

The citeria should of course be at least 2 games played (1 game and a rematch to get even)
It's Norway ~;)
Really - it is ~:)

I guess Brazil has a Norway complex. 2 - 0 in games as of yesterday.
Sorry guys, I couldn't resist :laugh4:
Impressive. :2thumbsup:
Two similar trivia spring to my mind:
- Spain has never beaten France in a competitive match. They failed to do so again last world cup, much to the delight of French supporters as there is a fair bit of rivalry involved.
- Dundee United have played against Barcelona four times in the European Cups, and those crazy Scots have won all four matches. :laugh4:

They drew Barcelona in 1966 and 1986, and won both their home and away matches on each occasion. Dundee Utd.
Have they ever gone against, say, Iran, Egypt, Australia, USA or Saudi Arabia?
More odd info: last year, England vs. Armenia was a draw. I think that is humbling for England and great for Armenia.
Brazil – AustraliaQuote:

At least one win...
Can't say they have ever played Iran, Egypt or Saudi Arabia, you'll need statistics from "private matches" for that. I can't find any.
I Believe Iran won from the us in 1994, the first time they got in to the world cup. I believe it was 1-0 for Iran. (or ws it another country? My memory is failing me. But I was right about norway!)Quote:

Egypt: no idea.

Egypt? In competition? Not as far as I know, they never got much far in the World cups. Don't know about federation cups. But I'm quite sure they haven't played ijn competition.
Saudi Arabia, no idea.
Brazil vs US. Manny times, but I can't remember any results.
Brazil vs Australia:last game 2-0 for Brazil as you guys probably all still remember.
What do you mean? You guys were in the very first World Cup and made it even to the semi finals...Quote:

Trivia
Norway is the only team in the world who has never lost to Brazil, winning two matches and drawing on two other occasions.

Really? That shall be interesting trivia to bring up in school tomorrow, especially since a few of the players over the years have come straight from my school...Quote:
