After saying goodbye to the fans in the rout over Panama and receiving the CBF employees’ stamp of support, the Brazil National Team departed this Monday (1st) for New Jersey, in the United States, to compete in the 2026 World Cup.

Before heading to Tom Jobim International Airport, the players and coaching staff took part in a special farewell program at CBF headquarters in Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro. The group said goodbye to the federation’s employees and participated in a series of activities organized to mark the beginning of the journey toward the World Cup.

Among the activities was a visit to the Brazil National Team Museum, home to the Seleção’s achievements and historic artifacts, as well as a स्वागत corridor formed by CBF employees.

Big win and confidence​

The team coached by Carlo Ancelotti showed attacking intensity and great variety in its plays in the 6–2 rout over Panama. Vinícius Júnior opened the scoring in the opening minutes, while Casemiro, Rayan, Lucas Paquetá, Igor Thiago and Danilo Santos also found the net in the victory.

Throughout the match, the coach made several substitutions and used a good portion of the called-up squad, expanding his final observations before defining the team for the World Cup.

Final adjustments for the World Cup​

Before its World Cup debut, the national team will still play one final warm-up friendly on U.S. soil. The opponent will be Egypt, in a match scheduled for June 6 in the city of Cleveland, at Huntington Bank Field, at 7 p.m. (Brasília time).
