In the history of the World Cup in the past 100 years, the most dazzling team is Brazil in South America.

Since the first World Cup was held in 1930, Brazilians have not missed any World Cup event, which is a unique record in world football, and the Samba Army is the only team in the world to win the World Cup five times, hence the name Five Star Brazil.

In the history of the Brazilian team, there are many players who wear the number 9 shirt, but not many people can give this shirt special meaning.

The shirt number was first introduced to World Cup matches in 1950, but Brazil's number 9 shirt did not appear until 1954, owned by Baltasar, who scored a goal in the World Cup, and Brazil ended up in the quarterfinals.

After him, Zozimo (1958 World Cup), Cudinho (1962 World Cup), Lildo (1966 World Cup) and Tosten (1970 World Cup) became the owner of Brazil's No. 9 shirt.

Tostang

The top three are not much different from Baltasar, mediocrity is their best synonym, compared to the performance of the first four Tostang is a superstar. He started all six games for Brazil, contributing two goals and four assists, and was one of the main contributors to Brazil's victory in this title.

After Tostang, Cesar Maruco (1974 World Cup), Reinaldo (1978 World Cup), Serginho (1982 World Cup) and others took over the number 9 shirt, but they failed to add any legend to the shirt.

Among them, Serginho's performance is even more spicy, in the 82 World Cup, as the main center of the Brazilian team, he only scored one goal in 5 games, repeatedly missed good opportunities, he is considered the main reason why the Brazilian team failed to win the championship this time.

Serginho

Careca (1986, 1990 World Cup) is the first player in the history of Brazil to wear the number 9 shirt for two consecutive World Cups, in the 86 World Cup, Careca scored 5 goals for Brazil in 5 matches; In the 90 World Cup, Careca also lived up to the mission of Brazil's No. 9, scoring 2 goals in 4 games, the most goals scored by Brazil.

After him, Zinho ( FIFA World Cup 1994 ) won the World Cup with the team wearing the number 9 shirt , but did not score a goal individually. Although Tsuho's performance was average, because his successor was too dazzling, he had to mention Tsuho.

After 44 years (since 1954), Brazil's No. 9 shirt finally welcomes the player who can give him special meaning - Ronaldo. Ronaldo's first World Cup appearance was in 1994, but the number 9 shirt did not belong to him at the time, and at the age of 17, he was brought to the world by Brazil and did not get a chance to play.

Ronaldo took over the number 9 shirt in the next three World Cups (1998, 2002, 2006).

In the 98 World Cup, Ronaldo, as the attacking core of the Brazilian team, contributed 4 goals and 3 assists to the team, led the team to the final final, and personally won the Golden Ball of this World Cup. If it hadn't been for a sudden illness before the final, which left him in no form, France might not have been able to taste the Hercules Cup.

In the 2002 World Cup, Ronaldo's performance went further, he scored 8 goals in 7 games, including in the final against Germany, he scored two goals against goalkeepers, you must know that Kahn only conceded one goal before the final, with Ronaldo's 2 goals in the final, Brazil lifted the World Cup trophy for the fifth time.

In the 2006 World Cup, although Ronaldo was not at his peak, he did not shame Brazil's No. 9 shirt, and he scored 3 goals in 5 games, the most goals scored by Brazil in that World Cup, and Ronaldo surpassed Gerd Müller with 15 goals, becoming the most scored player in World Cup history (later surpassed by Klose with 16 goals).

Ronaldo's greatness once made Brazil's No.9 shirt more important than the No.10 shirt, which is known as the soul of the team.

Unfortunately, after Ronaldo left the national team, the performance of Fabiano (2010 World Cup), Fred (2014 World Cup) and Jesus (2018 World Cup) who took over the No. 9 shirt deteriorated.

Fabiano scored 3 goals in 5 games and, although he was the top scorer in the team, was only similar to Ronaldo in '06 and far from his peak performance; Fred in 14 years as the main center of Brazil, scoring only 1 goal in 6 games; And the 18-year-old Jesus has not scored a goal in five games, which is a shame for Brazil's No. 9 shirt.

With the 2022 World Cup in Qatar underway, in Brazil's group stage against Serbia, the owner of the new generation No.9 shirt, Rishalison, performed perfectly, scoring two goals to help Brazil win his opponents and stunned with a volley barb shot, which many fans thought could have been booked in advance.

It is hoped that Risalisson can surpass Fabiano and become a shining superstar like Ronaldo, leading Brazil to compete for a sixth World Cup trophy and returning Brazil's No. 9 to its former glory.
