As sports were one of the main cultural elements during the 20thCentury and football specifically was used as an instrument to strength national identity in South America, this paper aims at analyzing the propagandistic use of football made by the military governments from the 60s and 70s, in which this sport may have turned into soft power. We analyze the governments of Argentina, Brazil and Chile and their relationship with the national football teams at specific times when associations with it were attempted, paying attention to the experiences and the concept. We conclude that only for Brazil football provided benefits in both legitimacy and international influence.

Palabras clave : Bureaucratic-Authoritarian State; Football; Soft Power; Foreign Policy; Propaganda.
