The curtain came down on the tenth edition of the FIFA Futsal World Cup Uzbekistan 2024™ in dramatic style, as Brazil made history in Tashkent by beating Argentina 2-1 to win a record-extending sixth title, adding to the ones they claimed in 1989, 1992, 1996, 2008 and 2012.
In a historic final – the first between two teams from South America – Ferrão (5’47”) and Rafael (12’34”) gave Brazil a 2-0 half-time lead before Argentina ended a period of incessant pressure by pulling one back through Matías Rosa (38’00”). Brazil clung on for a dramatic last two minutes to hand Argentina, the champions in 2016, a second successive final defeat and only their second loss in their last 21 FIFA Futsal World Cup matches.
