of Brazil teams that didn’t win a World Cup, like the 1950, 1982, and 1986 teams, and probably 1998 too. They certainly played uglier soccer than any of those teams; stylistically, they looked and played more like Italy or West Germany out there, rather than Brazil.

That 0-0 Final in ‘94 was brutal, only topped in ugliness by the 1990 Final.

I do agree that they had good talent up front, including Romario.
