In the rhythm of Brazil's football calendar, the CBF has set the stage for the next act: on May 26th, in Rio de Janeiro, the Round of 16 draw for the 2026 Copa do Brasil will bring together ten already-qualified clubs and six yet to be determined, all placed in a single, unrestricted pool. It is a moment that distills the tournament's democratic spirit — where giants and underdogs alike await the same lottery, bound by the same uncertainty.
