The first match of the Brazil national football team is generally considered to be a 1914 match between a Rio and São Paulo select team and the English club Exeter City F.C., which the Brazilian team won 2–0.[2] In contrast to future successes, the nation's early appearances were far from brilliant, partly due to internal strife within Brazilian football over professionalism, which rendered the Brazilian Football Confederation unable to field full-strength teams.
In particular, disputes between the São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro state football federations meant that the team would not be composed of players coming from either of the federations. In both the 1930 and 1934 tournaments, Brazil were knocked out at the very first stage. But 1938 was a sign of things to come, as Brazil finished a strong third, with Leonidas da Silva making history and being the first player to score four goals in a World Cup match.
Brazil hosted the 1950 FIFA World Cup which was the first tournament to be held after World War II. It was the only time Brazil hosted. The 1950 tournament was unique in not having a single final, but rather a final round-robin stage of four teams; however, to all intents and purposes the deciding game between Brazil and Uruguay acted as that tournament's "final". The match was hosted at the Maracanã stadium in Rio de Janeiro, watched by 199,854 people, and Brazil only needed a draw to win, but lost the match 2-1 after being 1-0 up; this match has since been known in South America as "Maracanazo".

The Brazilians don't play when it comes to football. I can see the coach getting fired if Brazil failed to win the Copa America. They would have to bring a new coach and start from 1. I can see Julio Cesar, Maicon, Dani Alves, Kaka, Ronaldinho, Lucio, Elano, Robinho not make Brazil's 2014 World Cup squad.
