Official Nike Brazil home football shirt from the 2002 international season.

This is the rarer '4 stars' version of the jersey, manufactured before Brazil lifted their 5th World Cup in the summer of 2002. Jerseys manufactured after this tournament, featured five stars above the crest.

The condition of this original football jersey is 8/10 - Excellent. A couple small faint shadow mark on the chest, and one on the lower front. One small faint mark on the upper rear (see photos).

Fuelled by the "Three R's" (Ronaldo, Rivaldo and Ronaldinho), Brazil won its fifth championship at the 2002 FIFA World Cup, held in South Korea and Japan. Brazil beat all three opponents in group play and topped the group. In Brazil's opening game against Turkey, Rivaldo fell to the ground clutching his face after Turkey's Hakan Ünsal had kicked the ball at his legs.

Rivaldo escaped suspension but was fined £5,180 for play-acting, and became the first player ever to be punished in FIFA's crackdown on diving. Brazil defeated Belgium 2–0, in the round of 16.

Against England in the quarter-finals, it won 2–1. The semi-final was against Turkey. Brazil won 1–0. The final was between Germany and Brazil. Ronaldo scored two goals in the Brazilian 2–0 triumph. Ronaldo also won the Golden Shoe as the tournament's leading scorer.
