Match overview
Brazil reached their second consecutive World Cup final by defeating hosts Chile 4-2 in Santiago. Garrincha was the standout performer, scoring twice and later being sent off. Vava also netted a brace for Brazil, while Chile responded through Jorge Toro and Leonel Sanchez but could not overcome the reigning champions.
Trivia
This semi-final is remembered for Garrincha’s dominant display and his subsequent red card, which initially threatened his participation in the final. The match was marked by high tension, with both teams finishing with ten men. Despite the defeat, Chile’s run to the semi-finals remains their best World Cup performance.
