The curse of historical encounters — Brazil has never beaten Norway

These are shocking statistics: Brazil and Norway have faced each other 4 times in history, with Norway winning 2 and drawing 2, remaining undefeated.

In the 1998 World Cup group stage, Norway beat Brazil 2-1, one of the greatest victories in Norwegian football history.

The other three encounters were a friendly in 1988 (1-1), a friendly in 1997 (4-2 Norway win), and a friendly in 2006 (1-1).

Brazil has never beaten Norway — the five-time World Cup champions, facing a small Nordic country, have been unable to secure a single win.

Historical data certainly cannot directly predict the future, but the psychological impact cannot be ignored.

Norwegian players know "we have never lost to Brazil," and this confidence is a huge advantage in knockout matches.

Brazilian players, on the other hand, carry the pressure of "must break the curse," which may make them nervous at critical moments.

But on the other hand, history is meant to be broken.

In 2014, Brazil suffered a humiliating 1-7 defeat to Germany at home, marking the darkest moment in their history; but they later won the 2019 Copa América and rose again.

Brazil has the ability and determination to break the curse of not beating Norway.

Early tomorrow morning is the best opportunity.
