World Cup 1958 Final Brasil Sweden

Finale
29 Juin 1958
Råsunda Stadium Solna


  As the tournament progressed, the Brazilians got better and better. And they still had more brilliance in store for the 50.000 crowd in the Råsunda Stadium and the millions more watching on television. The match was played on a slippery surface after 24 hours of rain. Brazil brought in Djalma Santos for his first game of the tournament, after his recovery from injury. He, Nilton Santos and Didi, were Brazil's only survivors from the 1954 World Cup.
