The 1994 FIFA World Cup in the United States marked Brazil’s 15th appearance in the tournament, continuing their unique status as the only national team to have participated in every edition since the World Cup’s inception in 1930. Under the guidance of head coach Carlos Alberto Parreira and with Mário Zagallo acting as the team coordinator, Brazil pursued their quest for a fourth World Cup title. The squad was captained by midfielder Dunga, whose leadership was instrumental in Brazil’s campaign.
The Brazilian team displayed a well-balanced mix of defensive solidity and offensive flair, characterized by the formidable strike partnership of Romário and Bebeto. After progressing through the group stage and knockout rounds, Brazil reached the final, where they faced Italy in a tightly contested match. Following a goalless draw through 120 minutes of regulation and extra time, the championship was decided by a penalty shootout. Brazil triumphed 3–2, with Roberto Baggio’s infamous missed penalty sealing the victory. This win secured Brazil’s first World Cup title since 1970 and cemented their position as the most successful team in the tournament’s history at the time, with four championships.
