has this happend before ever? world champ not making second round?

Twice, France in 2002 and Brazil in 1974.

Say what? Brazil totally went out of its group in 1974! Poland defeated Brazil in the game for 3rd place after all.

It has happened twice - France in 2002 and Italy in 2010. It seems to be a European speciality ;)

Has happened to Brazil in 1966 and more than one time to Italy but forgot when.They talked about that on TV yesterday.
