Brazil vs Mexico Copa America Tournament Record
Brazil took part in the first-ever Copa America in 1916 and won their first crown three years later, but all in all, one would have expected such an accomplished nation to have achieved more in the tournament.
One period of extended drought, in particular, stands out. From 1949 to 1989, Brazil failed to win a single Copa America title, which is hard to comprehend, not least given that during this period, they won three FIFA World Cup titles.
That run came to an end in 1989 when attacking duo Bebeto, and Romario played a key role in a successful campaign on home soil.
Between 1997 and 2007, they won four out of five Copa America titles and were the dominant force in South American football.
The first two titles in this run were down in no small way to the performances of FC Barcelona and Real Madrid star Ronaldo, ably supported by creative talents like Rivaldo and Ronaldinho providing the ammunition.
2004’s success was secured off the back of a marvelous run of form shown by Inter Milan forward Adriano, and the 2007 success saw one-time Manchester City man Robinho finish as the tournament’s top scorer.
2019 saw Brazil net their ninth Copa America when they beat Peru, but two years later, they suffered the humiliation of losing the crown to arch-rivals Argentina when former Manchester United winger Angel Di Maria scored the winner, taking the title in Rio to add further weight to the agony.
Of all the non-South American nations to compete in the Copa America, Mexico have proven by far the most consistent and the only one to come so close to actually winning the tournament.
Indeed, they made an immediate impact, getting to the Copa America Final in their first appearance before losing to Argentina in Ecuador.
In 2001 they once again got to the final; this time, it was Inter Milan defender Ivan Cordoba who ended Mexico’s hopes, scoring the winner for hosts Colombia.
An illustration of Mexico’s consistency in the event comes from the fact that in ten campaigns, they have reached at least the Semi-Finals on five occasions.
Brazil vs Mexico Head-to-Head
Brazil and Mexico have played each other in six previous Copa America clashes, the first of which came in 1997.
In that group stage clash, two goals from Luis Hernandez appeared to have given Mexico a win, but Mario Zagallo’s side fought back well to win 3-2, with PSG star Leonardo netting the winner with ten minutes to play.
Ten years later, the two sides met again in a group stage game, but Mexico got the upper hand on this occasion, winning 2-0 with Nery Castillo and Ramon Morales netting.
