If history is repeated, then there are two details in the final standings of the World Cup in South America, suggesting that Brazil won the 2026 World Cup

The South American World Cup qualifiers are finally over. This double loop league competition system is just procrastination. Look at the European World Cup qualifiers, just a few groups, and this time, all the competitions can be completed in less than 4 months. Of course, this is also because there are too many European teams and too few South American teams. To be honest, with the size of South American football, this big round-robin competition system may be the most suitable.

Moreover, the advantage of this competition system is that it maximizes the strength and form of each team over the past two years. Aren't you awesome? Don’t look at the World Cup or the Copa America first, but see what results can be achieved in the World Cup qualifiers. Anyway, it is the league system, and every two teams have to play home and away games, and the ranking is fair and clear at a glance. In European football, you can say that Spain has drawn a good draw, but did not meet England and France, and the group number one is not worth the value; but in American football, these do not exist. You are the first, you are the fifth, you are the fifth. It's just a matter of reporting ID cards from Argentina and Brazil. Brazil really feels like it follows the expansion of its military quota. Assuming that if it was still the previous 4.5 places, would you guess Brazil dare to lose to Bolivia in the last round? Or, does Brazil dare to be so unrestrained in the entire World Cup qualifiers? Perhaps, there are too many places in South America after the expansion of the army, which makes Brazil, which is at a low point, even lets itself be in a bad state. No matter how bad it is, it will not be able to get into the top six. Of course, even if you win the first place in the South American World Cup, there is no substantial additional benefit. At most, it is just to consolidate your seed team position so that you can be in a favorable position when drawing lots. So, for Brazil, despite its poor results, promotion is the bottom line. Moreover, who said that the World Cup qualifiers are not good, and it will definitely not work when it reaches the main competition? In the early years, Spain was called the king of qualifiers, but every time they arrived at the World Cup, they would fail. On the contrary, many teams that are not good at the World Cup qualifiers and barely advance to win the title. Speaking of this, the entertainment factor in my heart has become active again. As for football, it is nothing more than a way to find fun for fans. Looking at the final standings of this South American World Cup qualifier, if you are familiar with previous history, you may have a subtle feeling - if history is repeated, then there are two details that suggest that Brazil won the 2026 World Cup.

The first detail, Brazil did not get the first place. In fact, the South American World Cup qualifiers only established the major league model after 1994, and they used to be group matches. In previous World Cup qualifiers after 1994, Brazil either did not participate in the competition because of its host or defending champion, or it won the first place. But, except for this session, there is only one exception, that is, the 2002 World Cup qualifiers. Brazil played poorly at that time and was at risk of being eliminated at one point. In the end, they won the third place without any danger and got the promotion quota. But even so, there are still many fans who think it is the worst Brazilian team in history. But after finishing third in the qualifiers, Brazil won the championship in the World Cup. Therefore, Brazil did not win the first place in this World Cup qualifiers, and did not even make the top three, breaking the lower limit of the World Cup qualifiers. But on the other hand, does this indicate that Brazil can rebound completely like it did in 2002? The second detail, Ecuador won the second. After 1994, Ecuador only won the second place in the previous World Cup qualifiers, which happened to be the same as in 2002. As a non-traditional top three team, Ecuador can win the runner-up in the World Cup, which should be considered a once-in-a-lifetime event in South American football. And when Ecuador was in a state of prosperity, Brazil happened to win the World Cup. In other words, if Ecuador is strong in the World Cup, Brazil will be strong in the World Cup. In fact, these two details point to the 2002 World Cup qualifiers. The so-called re-enactment of history is actually all about entertainment, and there is no logic in itself. Moreover, with Brazil's current strength, it is unlikely that they will create such a miracle. Perhaps, it was Brazil that made fans around the world wait for too long, so many people have broken down various historical coincidences and subjectively come to the conclusion that they can win the championship. Let’s see what will happen in the 2026 World Cup.
