Remarks: The matches against Bulgaria Olympic Team (0-0, 26- 4-70), Ireland Unity (Shamrock Rovers 4-3, 3- 7-73)
         and Romania League Team (2-2, 27- 9-95) were not full A games and purged by the CBF (Brazilian FA) and 
         therefore not include here; the CBF invited to Zagallo to coached their last match match against South
         Korea in 2002 as farewell of the Brazilian National Team.
