1950 was always the nadir for Brazilian football, but the current Brazilian squad's greatest achievement has been to leave Brazil even more embarrassed than 64 years ago by losing 7 - 1 to Germany on home soil.
Team 33 spoke to the Daily Mail's Joe Callaghan who was at the Estadio Mineirão and he gave us an insight into the dark mood in the country following the greatest humiliation in their history.
It looks like Big Phil Scolari will end up being pushed out but which players have played their last game for the Selecao?
Have Brazilians started to examine the problems they are struggling with at grassroot level and even so, is the Brazilian FA capable of reinventing Jogo Bonito in the same way that Germany did a decade ago?
O'Callaghan discussed all these issues and more in Episode 16 of Team 33.
