Brazil Vs. Argentina Match History

[Alien_Latino]

Almost every official encounter between Brazil and Argentina has ended in an Argentine victory, in the last 4 WC qualifying games in recent memory, Argentina has won 3. I remember 1997, 2001 and 2005.

Can somebody proved me wrong (or right)?

What will happen in a semi-final or final between Argentina and Brazil?

I am sorry to inform you that you are quite wrong.
From the top of my head (official only)
WC 2006 Qualy 1. Brazil (H) won 3-1 / 2. Arg (H) won 3-1
WC 2002 Qualy 1. Brazil (H) won 3-1 / 2. Arg (H) won 2-1
WC 1998 Brazil didnt play Qualy
WC 1994 Qualy Brazil and Argentina didnt play each other (different group)

Copa America:
Brazil has won all but 1 in the last 4 editions and in the last one has beaten Argentina in the Final in a penalty shootout (1-1). Cant remember any other game except one in which they drew and Bazil won by penatlies (think its a QF or SF in 1999 -the night of the infamous Tulio handball).

The last Confederations Cup, Brazil gave Argentina a 4-1 thumping.

The 1997 game you remember is a pre-WC friendly in Maracana. Argentina won 1-0. God knows what is your 2001 memory.

As you can see, Brazil is overdue a good trashing...maybe in Germany?:D

I think the AFA says that Argentina has 37 wins, if I'm not mistaken.

I don't have the exact numbers, but i say that CBF and AFA don't use the same criteria

[GRBomber]

I heard about it this week.
They started counting the matches in different years.
CBF in 1914 and AFA in 1908, if I'm not mistaken (and I probably am).

[XaviandXabi]

regardless, this is the biggest rivalary in international football, its the equavilant of a Barca-Real game

i have heard many Argies call it el super classico

[sidis]

The "superclasico" is River vs Boca Rivalry, and in Uruguay Nacional vs Peñarol.

But you right, we have a lot of Rivalry in soccer.
