Brazil break Argentina's record for the most points in a South American qualifying group ahead of the 2022 World Cup with their latest victory.

Brazil have set a new South American World Cup qualifying record following their victory over Bolivia.

Tite's team beat Bolivia 4-0 on Tuesday, with Lucas Paqueta and Bruno Guimaraes getting on the scoresheet, while Everton's Richarlison bagged a brace.

Brazil have amassed 45 points from their 17 games in qualifying, which is a new record for the highest number any team has secured in the history of the group.

The points haul surpasses Argentina's efforts during the 2002 group, when Marcelo Bielsa's team managed to gain 43 points from all of their fixtures.

The Selecao still have one more match to play against Argentina, but they will top the group ahead of the tournament in Qatar later this year regardless of that result.

Brazil are also set to be back in the number one slot of the FIFA World Rankings after Belgium were held to a draw in their most recent match against Republic of Ireland.
