Some very interesting curiosities for the ones that don't know: - Guardiola said that the Brazi'ls 1982 team was his inspiration to define his style of game. You can notice that a lot of the passes you see in the video are first touched, something we saw again in Guardiola's Barcelona. Definitely, something revolutionary for the time. - Socrates was the first player to ever use the back heel pass intentionally (you can see a lot of "advanced for the time" passes in this video - the LB of that team, was right footed - Junior. Of course, he also could use the left foot, but he always played on the left side - the bench was as good as the starters. Players like Roberto Dinamite, Dirceu, Batista, Paulo Isidoro would constantly enter the games - No team in the world is unanimous and this team had 2 players that the crowd and press did not trust entirely, such as the rest of the team - The GK Waldir Peres and the Striker Serginho. However, as Brazil would win every game, the crowd would tolerate those 2 in the main squad and Tele Santana (Brazil's coach at the time) was nationally beloved. - Cerezo missed a very silly pass in the game against Italy that resulted in the Italians' goal. For a long time, he was considered the "one to blame". - In that time, the National Teams had more time to train together. Most of Brazil players were playing in Brazil National League. Therefore, the comradely and team chemistry were very good. - Many say that after that WC, the football changed. The "defensive" minded coaches started to gain the market and this probably only changed after Guardiola's Barcelona. Cheers!
As a young lad growing up in the 1980s, id always loved watching football , ...but the one team that remains a everlasting treasured memory of those times, was that truly mesmerizing Brazil side of 1982,...they were playing football you only see in your dreams, ...very skilled silky attacking football, they simply blew me away....the goals , and their brilliant team was simply breathtaking, I'd never seen a team play like this before,...and some 38 years later, I've sti!l not,...to me they remain the greatest team I've ever had the pleasure to watch, ...and the finest never to win the World Cup🏆......but in my eyes they will always be champions....incredible Team
The Brazil team of the early 1980s played champagne football the like which will never be seen again.Easily the greatest international football team of all time.Their football was pure art.
Yes indeed, if you want to watch the art of soccer, then watch Brazil world cup team 1982, even Pep Guadiolla admired this team, think copied his tactics from Telle Santana
shold have won, do you live in fantasy land they got beat by a better team who were a team not a bunch of individuals its about time people give Italy the credit they deseve
@@ozzispurs8461 Italy 1982 wasn't a great team, it's just Paolo Rossi was on his day. Watch the full match to better understand who played the better game, the briliant Quadrado Magico Eder, Falcao, Zico,and Socrates played out of this world football in that game, but luck wasn't on their side. Brazil had a bad striker, Serginho that is! If it was Careca he'd finish all those chances that Serginho had.
On the contrary, Brazil 1982 play like the best club sides do today. Creating triangles of possession, fluid interchange of position to drag defenders out of position, fullbacks overlapping to create overloads out wide and a centre-forward who was used more as a forward pivot than a penalty box poacher. This team was about twenty five years ahead of their time. With a better goalkeeper, they might have won the damn tournament.
@@souradeepsengupta95 it was said the manager fell out with Leao who was a more senior keeper and was the team Captain in 78. The team believed he should he been first choice but the manager had his way because he wanted an outfield leader.
I am from the Netherlands and have experienced 74 and 78 finals but the magic of this team for me was outside this world pure ball controll highest level
Verdade, @m00lenaar, verdade! Parecia uma equipe fora deste mundo, puro controle de bola ao mais alto nível. Verdade. Aqui no Brasil, nós brasileiros acreditávamos certamente que aquela seria a equipe campeã da Copa de 1.982 na Espanha. Suponho que a Seleção Brasileira perdeu para a Itália por um único detalhe, apenas naquele jogo: uma falha no setor defensivo que deveria estar mais denso e fechado. Foi então que Paolo Rossi aproveitou-se e deu a vitória para a Itália.

If you notice carefully you will realize ALL those great Brazillian teams had at least 7 black players. Where are Brazil,s black players now. France won the last cup with 10 black mlm players. England got to the semi finals with 8 black players. You get my point. I could go on and on
@@paulies5407 Was speaking about ONE team . BRAZIL. Dont give a shit about Spain and Germany .Even these two racist teams are now using black players.They are now realizing the greatness and value black players bring to their teams.
This is just a taste of what we used to see back in the day in Brasil. And who grew up in the city of Rio de Janeiro on the 60s, 70s, 80s, saw it every Sunday, at Maracanã with over 150.000, 160.000 people. Good old days. Great video.
No Morumbi, no Mineirão, no Beira-Rio. Na década de 60 quem mandou foi Santos e Botafogo. Nos anos 70, Inter, Palmeiras, Cruzeiro e na década de 80 o Flamengo. O futebol do Brasil não é só Rio e Maracanã. Vasco, Fluminense e Botafogo nunca lotavam o Maracanã, exceto clássicos estaduais. Depois passaram a jogar em estádios ridículos no Brasileirão, como Laranjeiras, São Januário e Caio Martins no fim da década de 80.
@@adrianomoraesdasilva9205 Década de 80 foi Flamengo e Atlético MG, que formava a base da seleção de 82. Faltou somente uma pessoa para nos dar o título dessa copa, Reinaldo, que estava machucado.
Well said, seems these days football is less fun to watch no freedom of expression on the field just so calculated and robotic now plus these Instagram players play with no soul like the legends of old barring a few of them.
This was the Second Greatest team in the History of Soccer! It was known as the Brasilian legend Of 1982!🙏 Unfortunately they NEVER WON A WORLD CUP! They were eventually stopped by Italys Paulo Rossi. Italy went on to become the eventual champions. However The unforgetful skills and playmaking of this great team are brilliant! Point to note here that they didn't win it from 1970 all the way to 1994. PURE SAMBA SOCCER! 👌
aún con lágrimas en mis ojos al ver este video, vino a mi mente 1986, cuando tuve la dicha con 8 años poder ver y admirar a granparte de esa Brasil del 82, ver de cerca a Sócrates, Zico y Falcao es u ode los más gandes tesoros en mi vida, que monstruos por favor ese eqjupo nos robó el corazón en 82 y lloramos esa eliminación, no existe ni existira otra expresión más bonita del fútbol, desde México nuestra admiración al pueblo brasileño por su aporte al mundo
Olá Sebastian Rulo , tudo bem !?😀👋 Eu fiquei encantado com os seus comentários 😃 sobre a inesquecível seleção brasileira de futebol de1982. Eu tive a mesma emoção sua daquela época,a comoção da inesperada derrota do Brasil 🇧🇷 para a Itália causou um clima de pesar pra toda parte ! Mas aquela lendária seleção de 82 jamais morrerá em nossos corações, por tudo que eles representam de tão lindo e radiante do futebol brasileiro e mundial 🌎 nos gramados espanhóis! Sebastian, a velha arte do futebol brasileiro voltará, de outras maneiras. A seleção brasileira de 1982 : Valdir Perez, Leandro, Oscar, Luizinho, Cerezo, júnior, Falcão, dr Sócrates, Serginho, Zico e Eder, deixaram um gigante eterno legado para todos amantes do futebol lindamente artístico,para todas gerações futuras no mundo todo !

You are right,one of the best team Brazil ever asseemble. I still remember the super Junior,lovely player. I wish to visit this great footballingn nation one day. I love you Brazilian from Nigeria. I am a Brazilian when Brazil is playing other country,but a Nigerian,when Nigeria is playing Brazil. Love you Brazil. Cheers
Great comment - I love to see Argentinians who appreciate Brazilian football and Brazilians (and Englishmen) who love Argentinian football and Maradona! Un abrazo desde un inglès que adoro Dieguito! Abraços tambem aos amigos brasilieros - o mundo inteiro fica aqui por amor do jogo bonito!
@@user-rt5br1zi3u Their real Stricker was supposed to be Reinaldo but unfortunately for Brazil he got an injury before the World Cup.That is why they settled for Serginho.
@Pedro Guedes palhaço é você em 78 foi sacado do time porque não rendeu, e o Brasil quase não passou da primeira fase. Só passou porque ganhou de um a zero da Austria gol de Roberto Dinamite, esse sim era mais legal e não amarelava. Coutinho sacou zico e Reinaldo por baixo rendimento e para se classificar assistiu a vitória do banco, e depois assistiu a copa do banco enquanto o Brasil melhorava a cada jogo. Foi reserva em 78, amarelou em 82 e em 86 perdeu o pênalti que desclassificou o Brasil. Nunca vi mais amarelão.
First heartbreak 💔 .... they are my favourite set of Brazilian footballers of all time ... sad to see them lose in the finals 😢 ... but cherish all the skills and special moments ...
Most teams past/present had usually one player that was/is an artist. Win/lose I watch this team because all in that team made it a magical experience to watch them play.
Me too. The best team ever that didn't win what they deserved. Too bad Brazil didn't have good goalkeepers those days. Greets from Holland to @LL the early Brazil soccer fans.
Where are those boys who argue that today soccer is of very high level compared to the past .Watch carefully this video and you 'll realize that you are in illusion .Mundial ESPANA 1982 was the first world cup I watched .Till 2018 , I have in total watched 10 world cups .Even if they were not lucky to win a world cup , the Brazilian team of 1982 was the best I have ever watched at a world cup .
Mbaku Nkasa same for me. I was 9 years old back then andit was the first WC I watched. Still remember the clashes between Italy, Argentina and Brasil. Also the semi final between Germany and France, what a thriller. Brasil 82 was a real eyecatcher and still one of my favourite teams ever. As a Dutch guy I know what is is to play the game with such a delight touch and joy and to forget to win the worldcup. Holland 1974 did the same. Perhaps 2 of the greatest teams ever that failed to win the cup
Brazil in the 80s were definitely way ahead of their time. But it is unfair to compare eras that are 4 decades apart. Modern football is dictated by tactics and very detailed game plans. Defenders' positions are coached to inches, which means half of these goals wouldn't have happened in the modern game if they were to play a modern top team. Id agree totally If you refer 'high level' as in more entertaining football. But sadly football has moved on from individualism since the early 2000s. There is simply too much money involved for a club to risk on individual brilliance. so it made sense for academies to coach robots and systematic plays. Thus, players can be easily replaced cuz those who made it to the top will have similar attributes.
@Mbaku Nkasa Agreed, the ‘82 Brazil side commanded the footballl pitch. Their confidence and charisma, Zico, Falcao, Eder, to name a few, led by the regal figure of Socrates was the greatest football team of all time. Period.
Italy was the champion of the cup fifa 1982, had a great team this and undeniable. That Brazilian team something extraordinary, a magic football. Ball control, passes, skill, tactical and technical set. There are teams that did not win more were fantastic. Congratulations to Italy that won but the football lost with the defeat of this team. When a team manages to play as an orchestra it leaves the seed for the next generations, the clearest sound is only possible with the victory then the defeat of this Brazil, made only more of the same arise. The magic put in a certain plan and the soccer became burrocratic even for Brazil. The best Brazil legends 1982!
Just remember that defence wins matches and this team had a poor defence and ordinary goalkeeper. Everyone is bamboozled by all the fancy skills of individuals but the World Cup in 82 showed them to be defensively inferior against the skill of Italy.
Underrated video. These are the times up to the early 2000s when football was really fun to watch, so much freedom and expression on the field, not like these Instagram players of today these guys back then played with all their soul not just for money or fame, football at it's purest.
Es lejos la mejor selección de Brazil del medio campo hacia arriba con esos grandes moustros Zico, Sócrates , Falcao, Eder por ejemplo. El juego más bonito que le he visto a Brasil . No ganaron la copa del mundo. No tuvieron suerte pero lejos en juego es el Brazil más elegante en juego . Ese fabuloso juego me dejo marcado. Grande ese Brasil de 1982.
The featherlite touches were just magnificent. The little turns and flicks that all of a sudden opened up the entire pitch. The outrageous confidence bordering on insouciance. Yet, like my other favourite team The Nethelands '74, they didn't win. That is the beauty and tragedy of football. But the memory of these teams will live forever, and inspire us always, long after we have forgotten about Italy '82 or West Germany '74
Yes, sure: players like Beckenbauer, Müller, Breitner or Zoff, Conti, Rossi and Tardelli are completely and deservedly forgotten by now... 🙄 Total nonsense, of course!
O futebol mais bonito que vi uma seleção do Brasil jogar. Perdeu pra Itália, seleção também de grandes jogadores, mas deixou o seu legado na história do futebol. Gênios da bola.
Ver a ese Brasil del 82 en ese mundial en vivo hubiera sido ver la máxima expresión del fútbol en vivo- aunque no fue campeón sino el Italia de Paolo Rossi era un equipo de ensueño.
Yo tenía 10 años de edad en 1982. Y jamas olvidare ese fantástico equipo. No fueron campeones es verdad pero para mi es de las memejores seleciones de todos los tiempos. Mejor que algunas que fueron campeonas. INOLVIDABLE
YO VI TODOS LOS PARTIDOS DE BRASIL DE ESE MUNDIAL, TENIA 14 AÑOS; PARA MI LA MEJOR SELECCION DE CUALQUIER MUNDIAL DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS, AUNQUE NO HAYAN SIDO CAMPEONES PERO ESOS CINCO PARTIDOS ME LOS LLEVO EN MI MEMORIA Y HASTA LA TUMBA....TRATO CUANDO JUEGO EL JUGAR ASI DE BONITO, UNAS VECES SALEN LAS JUGADAS Y OTRAS NO, Y AL TERMINO DEL PARTIDO SIEMPRE HE TENIDO ESA SATISFACCION DE VER EN MIS COMPAÑEROS QUE SE DIVIRTIERON JUGANDO AL VERDADERO FUTBOL SE GANE, EMPATE O PIERDA....OTRA SATISFACCION ES DE QUE JUGANDO EN EL EQUIPO DE MI HIJO, SALIMOS CAMPEONES...….YO ERA EL UNICO RUCO EN MIS 40s Y MI HIJO Y SUS AMIGOS ABAJO DE LOS 22. ¡¡¡¡¡VIVA EL JOGO BONITO!!!!!
Io non ho mai capito e mai capirò perchè la storia fece vincere all'Italia quella partita dell'estate del 1982... Per noi italiani fu un'emozione indescrivibile.. Una gioia incredibile che ancora oggi ci fa tremare i polsi. Forse l'Italia di Zoff, Paolo Rossi, Scirea, Tardelli e sopratutto Bruno Conti era davvero una squadra tosta e affiatata.. Ma per me quel Brasile rimane L squadra più bella di tutti i tempi! Love e Rispettp
Il grande colpevole era Telê Santana Avrebbe potuto scegliere giocatori migliori Avevamo giocatori migliori di Serginho e Valdir Perez Quando il Brasile ha pareggiato quella partita contro l'Italia, ha mandato avanti l'intera squadra.
Il problema del Brasile era la fase difensiva. Bearzot e i giocatori lo avevano capito. Poteva essere pure una beffa, prendere il goal del pareggio, dopo averci annullato un goal regolare di Antognoni. La difesa del Brasile era il loro punto debole, se guardi i video di molti brasiliani, riconoscono questo, la mancanza di equilibrio tattico, tra attacco e difesa. Hanno faticato con la Russia, c’era anche un rigore netto per Urss non dato. Poi con Scozia e Nuova Zelanda, era un test facile. Una squadra deve essere bilanciata, non discuto la grande qualità tecnica, ma la tattica, dal centrocampo in su ottimi, ma fase difensiva, molto scarsa
My dad actually met Socrates in a bar. It was a arranged meeting and everything. Long story, but anyway. Socrates told him that playing with that Brazil squad were some of the happiest moments of his life and when they were knocked out they were extremely sad. Not just the fact that they were knocked out of the world cup, but the fact that they would never play in a team like that again.
Que grande injustiça a mídia faz com esta seleção. Pouco se fala. Mas para mim, caso fosse campeã todos esses jogadores seriam ovacionados, jamais esquecidos. Foi sem dúvida a melhor seleção depois de 70. Jogavam verdadeiro futebol arte. Zico, Falcão, Cerezo, Sócrates, Leandro, Éder, Oscar, Luizinho mereciam o título mundial, principalmente Tele Santana. A maior injustiça do futebol mundial. Não esquecendo da Holanda em 74. Com certeza se fosse campeã, estes jogadores estavam na mídia até os dias de hoje
Para mi este equipo el mejor de todos los tiempos. Alguien me leyo la mente y ya nombro a Barcelona. Si no viviste esta epoca donde el football era amor y pasion entonces muy dificil puedes compararle a este equipo con Barcelona. Alguien como Zico-Socrates-Falcao-Junior y el cañonero Elder. Papa Barcelona no le llega a este equipo ni a limpiarle los zapatos.
Yo vi jugar a este Brazil y era un espectáculo, era los partidos más esperados, su estilo de juego era un arte. Parecían disfrutar de jugar más que de competir… No he vuelto a ver un equipo de fútbol asi..
Que verticalidad que tenian y me sorprendio la cantidad de goles de media distancia...ahora el futbol de ahora es mucho mas competitivo hay menos espacios mas presing y defienden todos y por cantidad de partidos el barelona es mejor...
Jesus Christ that starting lineup is absolutely insane, 9 of the 11 would be top 3 players at their position if they were playing today, unfortunately their Keeper and striker were really subpar, but man that team was fucking stacked
@@cesarblanco4774 equipo sobrevalorado, hicieron maravillas ante Rusia , Escocia y Nueva Zelanda, a ver si caían en el grupo de Alemania o Francia qué iban a hacer
This was one of the most talented teams of all time. I remember them very well. They were amazing football players. That was also a very special world cup one I will allways remember
Tele Santana was a great coach but with two bad choices: the goalkeeper and Serginho Chulapa. Serginho was not in synchrony with the finesse, talent and improvisation of his teammates.
Meu Deus!!! O Neymar Jr. tem que ver e rever este vídeo para realmente saber o que é jogar e representar o seu País. Obrigado por tudo geração de 82. Moralmente vocês são Campeões!!!
@@Oful4noooooo O "Neymidia" é superior à quase toda essa seleção, senão à toda! E usar como argumento o fato de que o Neymar ainda não ganhou uma copa do mundo é de uma burrice gigantesca, principalmente comparando com os jogadores dessa geração de 1982 que não ganhou nada...
in 1981 and 82, prior to the WC, this team beat Germany in Berlin, France in Paris, England in Wembley, Spain and Portugal... they had won all their qualifying matches. Mozer, Junior, Leandro, Cerezo, Eder, Socrates, Falcao,Zico... holy the shit technique level was supreme, shame their 2 main strikers were hurt and they had to go with Serginho, who was a good player but not on that level
So pity they didn’t win the World Cup with this team. They were really the best Brazilian team ever. Everyone in the whole world loved this samba football. We never saw it anymore.
Sensational, wonderful; awesome, exciting, something from another world, a masterpiece , a tribute to good taste and exquisite, simply there are no words....
This team played the most beautiful football that a national football team have ever played in the history of the World Cup. Second in my list is Brazil 1970, and third Holland 1974 and 1978. Unfortunately Brazil did not win the 1982 World Cup, but they made history as a football team and that is why after 36 years they are still revered . My heart sunk on the day they lost and I still feel nostalgia for such a wonderful team that even with such a bad goalkeeper achieved what no other national football since then has been able to replicate: to play beautiful art football. As another video on RU-vid about this team put it: that was the day that beautiful football died.
