- HISTORY OF BRAZIL X HAITI

The Brazilian team has already faced Haiti on three occasions, winning all the games by rout. The first confrontation was in 1974, in a friendly played in Brasília. Paulo César Caju, Rivellino, Marinho Chagas and Edu scored in the 4-0 victory.

In 2004, in the friendly match that became known as the "Peace Game", the team went to Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti, which, like today, was facing a period of social and political turmoil.

Brazil won 6-0, with three goals from Ronaldinho Gaúcho, two from Roger and one from Nilmar.

In the 2016 Copa América, the biggest defeat came: 7-1 for Brazil, with three goals from Philippe Coutinho, two from Renato Augusto, one from Gabigol and another from Lucas Lima.
