History [ edit ]
FIFA 🛡 Era [ edit ]
Ever since the early days of the FIFA Futsal World Cup, Brazil have been a force to 🛡 be reckoned with on the international scene. The Auriverde claimed the trophy at the first three editions of the showpiece 🛡 event, at Netherlands 1989, Hong Kong 1992 and Spain 1996, but were outstripped by their futsal bête noire, Spain. La 🛡 Furia Roja proved to be too strong for Brazil in the Final of Guatemala 2000 and at the semi-final stage 🛡 of Taiwan 2004, where they went on to take the title once more. Brazil won their 4th and 5th titles 🛡 in Brazil 2008 and Thailand 2012, beating Spain in the finals of these two editions respectively. They are known for 🛡 defeating East Timor 76–0 in the 2006 Lusophony Games in Macau.
