About this print

There was no final in 1950: four teams played a last round-robin, and hosts Brazil needed only a draw against Uruguay in the deciding match. Friaça put Brazil ahead at the Maracanã, but Juan Alberto Schiaffino equalized and Alcides Ghiggia scored the winner for a 2-1 Uruguay win, the match known as the Maracanazo.

About Champs Ring prints

Champs Ring is the original radial sports bracket. Hyperakt's Deroy Peraza created it for the 2010 World Cup, and it went on to appear in more than a hundred publications and in design exhibitions in France and Spain. Every print shows one tournament's knockout rounds as rings, with the champion at the center.
