India To Play Five-time World Champions Brazil In A Friendly In Kolkata
The All India Football Federation: The star-studded senior men's national team of five-time World Champions and World No.5 Brazil will visit for a historic tour later this year and play a friendly with India, ranked 138th in the FIFA World Rankings, in Kolkata on October 3.
"The All India Football Federation (AIFF) is proud to announce that the Brazil senior men's national team will play an international friendly match against India on October 3, 2026, in Kolkata," the AIFF informed in a release on Thursday.
This is the first time the senior national team of Brazil will play in India, though many football stars from that country, including the legendary Pele, have played in India. Pelé visited Kolkata in September 1977, playing an exhibition match with the New York Cosmos against Mohun Bagan at Eden Gardens in a thrilling 2-2 draw before over 80,000 fans.
