Worry are quite natural but thinking that Brazil will not play in the 2026 World Cup seems too excessive if it happens it will be the worst history for Brazilian football and the CBF may fight for this bad thing not to happen, so I think Brazil will still play in the Cup World Cup 2026, they just need to make quite significant changes if they want to become world cup champions, with the existing squad it looks very difficult because their performance doesn't show that they are a strong team, is it because there are players who are injured? Maybe, but with a lot of good players, they shouldn't have difficulty finding replacements for injured players or the real problem is that their coaching staff isn't good enough to build a great team.

Correct. Indeed, Brazil performed very badly in qualifying this time. The defeat against Argentina added to Brazil's bad record. The match against Argentina should have been used by Brazil to achieve victory, especially since the match was played at Brazil's home ground. Brazil must immediately improve if they want to go to the next World Cup. The first thing that Brazil must fix is that they must immediately recruit a new coach. So far, Brazil has only been managed by an inexperienced temporary coach and it is clear that Brazil's performance has declined significantly.

Maybe 2026 World Cup Qualifier Brazil is not playing that well. That doesn't mean they can't play the 2026 World Cup, of course they can. This is the state of the Brazilian team today as some important players are missing from the Brazilian team. Of course, I will hope for the players of Brazil, they know that if they play well in the next matches, they will go to the 2026 World Cup next. Those Brazilian supporters are really suffering from watching this game the way Brazil is playing at home.

I don't think much problem faced Brazil national team right now regarding have loss in last three qualifier matches, CONMEBOL have many teams slot will qualify to World Cup and not difficult yet how Brazil will back to the top performance and get finish under Argentina position when last qualifier match. Difference teams level between Europe and CONMEBOL I don't sure Brazil will have the same thing with Italy fail qualify to last world cup edition on 2022.
Brazil have two points left from Venezuela and not much problem by winning one match later automatically Brazil will be on 4th standings, left many qualifier match on CONMEBOL zone and I don't think so much with Brazil will difficult qualify to World Cup 2026 because they have many top young talented in their squad.

First of all, I think Brazil is not going to have much problems. The performance is going to improve. And they are not going to face something like Italy. At least I have faith. But of course, impossible things might happen. But that is possible, not probable.

If we compare the performance of Venezuela to Brazil, we will see that Venezuela is performing better. After all, Brazil has lost three matches in a row. That is really bad. Venezuela has at least been able to get one point from those matches that they were not able to win recently. And they are definitely in a comfortable situation right now. But of course, there is still time.

Venezuela is in a comfortable position at the moment. They are at the 4th place in points table, with 9 points from 6 matches. So far they have lost only one match (vs Colombia). But the same can't be said about Peru. They are in a perilous situation with 2 points from 6 matches (4 losses, 2 draws). Paraguay and Chile are in slightly better position. Anyway, each of the teams will be playing a total of 18 matches in this tournament, and so far only one-third of the matches have been completed. So there is plenty of time for various teams to catch up.

Still 6 places and one more for the interconfederation playoffs is a great advantage to the big teams, keep in mind that even at their current level Brazil is 6th and by sheer talent pool they can't do far worse in a long tournament, they will qualify
The real fight will be for the 6th and 7th place between Venezuela, Peru, Chile and Paraguay

They are right, for me what Venezuela has done is something very great, it is the first time in history that in the first day of qualifying they have achieved something like that, and it is a shame that they lost against Coombia, in fact Venezuela should have having won in Peru, I don't know what happens to them sometimes, they have everything to do it but they miss the opportunity, with respect to what happened with Brazil it is something very bad, Neymar is injured, and that has made the team not have the same push, against the Colombian game they started very well, in fact they scored a goal very quickly, like in 3 minutes, after this Vinicius was injured, and they began to show a lot of strength in the team and the Colombians began to attack, that It was what made Colombia go ahead, because Lucho Diaz, the Liverpool player who was very fond of, whose father was kidnapped, because the player was the one who scored the two goals that day, and he did it in a heroic way, and his dad celebrating at a very strange time (the memes after the game with Lucjo's dad were endless) but it was a very good game.

The truth is that I believe that Basil is going to arrive very demonized at the next games in September 2024, because the second knockout phase will begin, and I think that there Basil has to win all the games he has left, he has no other choice, besides another respite from the teams, those who were injured will recover and that could be another story, this is just beginning, but the emotion that is felt in these World Cup qualifiers is impressive, the truth is, personally, these qualifiers are more difficult than the Europeans themselves, there is a lot at stake here, nothing more than the fact that they are playing against an Argentina led by Messi, a Uruguay that does not believe in anyone, was the only team that beat Argentina in Argentina, and of course, Colombia which is very plugged in with its football, they are the teams that I see as stronger, but if Brazil joins it will be even more difficult, at least for teams like Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia itself, Peru is something serious, it is expected that they can take away points from Peru because after the game some Venezuelan players went to give their shirts to the members and a police force hit a player with a tremendous blow on the finger.

Yeah, at the end of the day it is Brazil after all.

They currently have the most world cups won, and they have qualified to every single world cup in history.

No team around the world can compete with those two facts. It's unique to Brazil.

I think they will manage to qualify. It would be too strange for them not to.

I don't have information about the last World Cup Brazil had but as far as I saw in the past World Cup games, Brazil never missed a World Cup and even if they were in a bad situation but Brazil played in the World Cup and even in the next world were going to see in the 226 I think Brazil will not miss this tournament because even in the worst form of Brazil, they can still have a great chance to be in the world cup.

The damage still isn't too big for Brazil to get it repaired in the next couple of games, but I am sure that the team now understood that this is not like a holiday trip for them to travel across South America and win the full three points every game. I thought that their standing in the table would be much better than it is after six games, but I think it is more the trend that is concerning than the trust that they are strong enough to qualify. The trend really looks ugly for them. It should not be forgotten that last time they qualified with zero losses!

I still believe Brazil have got a good chance at qualifying regardless of their loss against Argentina, after all Argentina is a small team either, Brazil still gat some good players and their team strength is still such that can be seen to be reckoned with but then their chance is now smaller.

Argentina is definitely qualify for the world cup, so far their performance has is really good and shows their readiness for the world cup, it will be out of place if they fail to qualify for the world cup as the defending champions of the title but I doubt if they will be able to keep the cup, it's most likely by the end of the world cup a new champion may emerge as other countries are really bracing up to winning the world especially the major host (the united states).

Well, yes and no, because in the past was even worst i think, in the 1980 for example Colombia was a meme national team and now is a very strong national team, Venezuela until 2010 was also like a meme and now, they lose but they can fight in the matchs, so is a big improvement, this goes also for a few others, the only one who doesnt improve was Bolivia.

I still think that it is not going to be all that difficult for them, after all we are talking about Brazil here. Yes they are not doing great, and yes they are looking to change their manager (ancelotti may take the spot) but that doesn't mean that they will keep doing terrible. They will do fine and I bet that they are going to be in world cup without a doubt. It should be noted that they are good enough to beat everyone else from here on out and they can go there. I know that some people have seen the bad momentum and they think that people will lose, but that doesn't mean that they will keep on losing forever, it is going to be quite difficult in the end.

I hope that we could continue this work and bet on them to win. I will personally bet on them to win all the remainder of the games because I believe that they are going to make a great profit, and that should not be an issue for them, it should be easy money for me hopefully, unless I am wrong and they lose again.

Honestly, I believe that Brazil may end up in top-4 once the CONMEBOL qualifiers finish. If by some chance they end up as 7th team in the tournament, then they need to play the Inter-confederation play-offs. But at this point we doesn't know who will be their opponents. As of now, FIFA hasn't revealed the draw for the playoffs. That will be publicized only after the first round qualifiers are completed. Anyway, irrespective of whether they are going to qualify or not, things are not looking rosy for the Brazilian team.

Brazil is still a good team. There is a lot of negativity recently towards their national team due to their loss against Argentina (1x0), however the game was pretty balanced if we look the statistics. The only considerable difference was regards fouls which Brazil commited much more than Argentina, what is quite ironical, since during the golden days of Brazil, it was Argentina to be considered an aggressive team on the field.

Also, keep in mind Argentina is the currently winner of World Cup, so naturally it must be really hard to play against them. If Brazil was doing so badly, I think the result would have been worse for them, just like when they played against Germany and took a 7x1 during the World Cup of 2014, at home.

Op you are right Brazil is not doing well right now. The five-time world champions have not won a title for 21 years. Then the Brazilian team is not performing so well in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Because of this, there are concerns about Brazil's participation in the 2026 World Cup. For a long time, the Brazilian team was at number three at the top, currently the team is at number five in Brazil. I have never seen a Brazilian team in such bad condition. The Brazilian team is in this state today due to the absence of some important players. Maybe if Neymar wasn't injured, if Neymar was in the team, maybe Brazil wouldn't be in such a bad situation.

Ah yeah, you're right. I thought there were only 6 spots now, but yeah, they kept the 0.5 slot.

Brazil might still not qualify by being 7th though, if they lose that game as well...

The journey of being great in football isn't just as easy as many may feel it is, infact it's very much obvious that there are hurdles that needs to be overcome. Even though it's very much likely that things may change at some point, but the dream is undying. There's definitely a or some reasons why people settle for football, first may likely be for the fun of it, there the passion for it takes the major course and the resilient spirit too being inert. They keep up the struggle because there's this zeal to enjoy what football as a sport meant. Every youngster would always have that in mind then inwardly projecting himself in the affluence lives of the players and then there is a new reason which balls around the financial gain from it.

 No one wants to be a suffering player, everyone wants to earn from it and even earn more from the tournament bonuses. In all, there's this push and driving force to making a life out of football, how beautiful the sport is, it's still also tagged to be the best in all, it's literally a sport that brings all kinds of people together in harmony and definitely more and more young players with greatness quest will arise.

It's very surprising to see that after six games played in the CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup Qualifiers, a big team like Brazil is lying in the six position behind teams like Columbia, Venezuela and Ecuador. Another big team in the CONMEBOL that's not living up to expectations of football fans is the Chile national team who's currently in the 8th position. That been said, I don't think that there's anything that's gonna stop Brazil from reaching the finals of the FIFA World Cup in 2026 because they have all the quality players needed to easily qualify for football's biggest tournament in 2026.

Argentina and Uruguay who are respectively leading the the qualifications table I also think are gonna surely make it to the finals as we all
