Essa Seleção merece ainda ganhar uma espécie de Taça de Honra ao Mérito.

[@tomasmarques2859]

Ninguém pode se culpar, até hoje foi a seleção brasileira mais brilhante dessa minha época, eu tinha somente 8 anos. Ser lembrado até hoje por ter sido derrotado pela Itália, significa que foi uma seleção que dava gosto de assistir. Mas com certeza foi uma das maiores injustiças do futebol mundial. Toda vez que eu vejo essa seleção me emociono, é como se eu tivesse torcendo aqui e agora por esta seleção. Uma sensação ímpar.

[@boablanca358]

It is impressive how much more is said about this Brazilian team than about Italy, which was champion that World Cup. More impressive is how a losing team can make history. This Brazilian team is a king without a crown. That is precisely the lesson that this extraordinary team leaves us: the best result does not always show your quality, your success. It's football......it's life itself.

[@carlobasilone3133]

Dont get carried away. They were fantastic and I loved them too, but the whole world remembers very clearly Tardelli's roar after scoring against Germany. The whole world including all of Europe, China, India and all of South America including Brazil. Unless you are either too young to remember or weren't even born. Either way, this team and these players were phenomenal. Once in a lifetime, and fortunately in my lifetime.

Futebol é bola na rede. O centro avante Italiano saiu 48 horas antes do embarque para Espanha 🇪🇸. Estava longe da bola dois anos. Para azar do Brasil ele começou a jogar naquele jogo. Verificar o primeiro gol que a jogada do Bruno Conte deixou três brasileiros batidos, um rolou no drible. Jornalistas brasileiros às vezes não enxergavam nossos craques.

I say that because I remember how great this Brazil of 82 was, maybe even better than Brazil of 70. Even while Italy beating Brazil was the greatest sporting joy of my life when I was 22, I realized that the Brazil of Zico, Falcao, Socartes, Cerezo, Eder, and every single other player on the field and on the bench who were actually GIANTS or MONSTERS of football. I have never had as much respect for any other team as I do and did for this particular Seleção. Not even for Italy or Argentina which I love both. Watching these heroes talk about football and their team is very emotional and reminds me of the love I had and still can have for this beautiful, beautiful game. I'm still crying.

A seleção brasileira de 1970, a seleção tri campeã do mundo com Pelé, Tostão, Rivelino, Jairzinho, Gerson, Clodoaldo... conquistou a copa de 70 jogando de forma bela, jogando o verdadeiro futebol arte. Isso é fato incontestável! E é até hoje reconhecida como o exemplo do futebol arte brasileiro. A seleção da Hungria de 1954 balançou o mundo com seu futebol belíssimo e apesar de não ter conquistado a copa em sua época, é comentada até hoje e será por toda a eternidade. A seleção da Holanda na copa de 74 além de um belíssimo futebol, mostrou explícita inovação tática. Na copa de 78 repetiu a dose e na final, fez uma partida apoteótica contra a Argentina. A Holanda é considerada a seleção do “quase”, pois nunca ganhou nada, mas, é comentada até hoje e será por toda a eternidade. A seleção brasileira de 1982 foi descrita por Pelé da seguinte forma: - “ganhamos em 70 com uma seleção de super craques experientes... mas, se a seleção de 82 tivesse conquistado a copa, poderia tranquilamente ser comparada com a de 70, pois, a seleção de 82 também teve super craques e jogava como uma orquestra. Mostrou um futebol belíssimo”. A Itália de 82 não tem culpa de nada, pois foi competente em seu futebol tradicional de forte marcação. Mas, em minha opinião, a seleção de 82 não ter conquistado a copa, fez um mal absurdo ao futebol, pois, após isso, deu-se início a mentalidade de trancar o jogo com volantes de contenção, do futebol de resultado, do jogar só para ganhar, mesmo se feio for.

Juts imagine it, Socrates, Zico, Falcao, Cerezo, Eder, Junior, Leandro vs Platini, Rocheteau, Giresse, Six, Amoros, Tigana, Bossis. Crazy how the world missed out and instead got "treated" to Italy v West Gernany having a virtual punch up in the final (lots of dirty fouling). Ultimately beautiful football was the loser in 1982.

Mi primer Mundial ! el mejor mundial ( tanto talento Junto en muchas seleciones )que Yo he vivido ...este Brasil nadie se acuerda porque no gano el Mundail !

[@franciscoconcha3090]

In my lifetime no team like this soccer ⚽️ team, Brasil 1982 World Cup 🇪🇸

[@mauriciomayer2350]

Great movie ! Brazilian people loved that national team. Much more that others champions national teams of 1994's or 2002's World Cup.

I still get so emotional when I see this. I was 21 at the time.

increadible team what a fabulous team and beautiful song brings back such happy , estatatic euphoric and at the same time sad memories bitter sweet

[@menelikmerid5234]

Watched this documentary for four times on DSTV and you tube. It's narrates the essence and soul of Tele Santana's Futebol Arte team. "A goal designed by Brasil Midfield. Another Painting!

[@rudycast8503]

Why Brazil has the best soccer players of all time? There’s something in their waters

[@darkrn1035]

in brazil the main sport is soccer, since childhood most people play soccer, this sport is highly valued in the country, but I believe that brazil has magic.

[@bl00dline360]

Soccer is the main sport also many of the great players came from deep poorness living in favelas and they know that one of the ways to get out of that is by playing AAA+ soccer

@@bl00dline360 Isso não explica a alegria em jogar futebol, como Ronaldinho tinha e a seleção de 82,acho que a alegria tem um pouco a ver com a cultura.

Best team I ever seen. The team of the beautiful game forever!

[@snakeeyesOFFICIAL76]

I rather watch this one million times than 94's team

[@pedddler]

Yes this Brazil team of 1982 was beautiful and special. But the skills and the beauty of football did not go away after Brazil got eliminated by Italy as the best game of the entire tournament happened in the semi final between France and West Germany.

[@mahedihassan7880]

What u r trying to say

[@luperamos7307]

@@mahedihassan7880 As Sean Connery put it, the Germany vs France match was football's apology for the loss of Brazil. It was an unbelievably match and ranks among the top 3 games of all time in my opinion. Some games live off the drama, some off the skill, etc. That game had absolutely everything.

[@anthtan]

As a neutral, I'd rather watch a beautiful football than winning football. The first is always enjoyable. The second not necessarily. I will always love Brazil '82.

[@PilchardIceCream]

As an Italian, this programme never fails to amuse me, reflecting on the fact that the English audience thought they were watching the greatest league in Europe, whereas serie A was already 5 to 12 years past its heyday back in the 80s...

[@muchapiezamipueblodemexico9115]

SIN DUDA EL MEJOR EQUIPO DE TODOS LOS EQUIPOS QUE HAYAN JUGADO AL FUTBOL DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS, ESA FLUIDEZ E INTELIGENCIA EN LA MEDIA CANCHA NO SE VERA EN NINGUN EQUIPO, CADENCIA Y ARTE HICIERON A ESE BRASIL INMORTAL YO VI TODOS SUS PARTIDOS EN ESE MUNDIAL, SOY MEXICANO Y FUE MUY DOLOROSO VER A ESTE EQUIPASO PERDER ASI...DESPUES VI COMO ITALIA OTRO EQUIPASO GANABA LA COPA...PERO ESTE BRASIL ENSEÑO AL MUNDO EN ESE MUNDIAL COMO SE JUEGA AL FUTBOL...HASTA QUE YO MUERA IMITARE A MI SOCRATES Y SUS PASES QUIRURGICOS, LA POTENCIA DE EDER EN EL GOLPEO AL BALON...EN FIN...GRANDE BRASIL.

El mejor Brasil que he visto jugar lastima que no fue campeon eran magicos jugando un gran equipo.

É possível entrar pra eternidade do futebol sem ganhar grandes títulos ou nenhum deles? Sim, Hungria de 1954, Holanda de 1974 e Brasil de 1982.

Entre todas, a derrota mais amarga e dolorida, pelos craques, pelo futebol, pela Seleção, e pelo Mestre Telê; que saudade do seu Telê, um gênio sem igual, que pena aquela geração de Zico, Sócrates, Falcão, Junior, Leandro, Eder, Careca, |Oscar, Amaral, Cerezzo, incrível; não tiveram Copa, nem final, nem semi-final; deixaram exemplo gigante de futebol e caráter!

[@E.G.-sv2kw]

I remember the game vs Italy. I was 10 yrs old and was watching with my older cousins. Everyone was rooting for Brazil except me, lol. I was rooting for Italy not really sure why but I was. Paolo Rossi became my favorite player. It was a heck of a game.

[@alesxandravieira5856]

Esta Seleção é uma das maiores alegrias e orgulho do nosso povo. Eu era muito pequena e ainda me lembro do “barulho”. Era uma energia tão maravilhosa, que chegava nas crianças ficou no inconsciente coletivo. Quem viveu isso sabe do que estou escrevendo. Quem não, pode sentir um pouco só de ver o olhar dos jogadores, torcedores, de todos os que aparecem neste documentário. Sem palavras. ❤🇧🇷🥹
