Switzerland
Switzerland started their campaign in group D, along with winners Brazil, with a close win against the Bahrain, winning 6–5. Switzerland confirmed their place in the quarter-finals by beating Nigeria in their second game 7-2 and taking themselves up to 6 points. In Switzerland's final they lost 4–2 to Brazil suggesting a Brazil win for the final. Therefore, Switzerland finished second in group D.

As Switzerland were the runners-up of group B, they met the winners of group C, Russia in the quarter-finals. The game was closely tied but Switzerland sealed their victory with a late goal to win 4–2. This saw Switzerland move on to play Uruguay national beach soccer team in the semi-finals. The semi-final was a stronger performance by the Swiss. Going into the third period with a 4–1 lead, they never looked like the team that would lose and despite Uruguay's best efforts, they never even got back on level terms allowing Switzerland to win 7-4 and move on comfortably into the final against 12-time winners, Brazil.

Brazil
Brazil started their world cup campaign as defending champions, in group D, along with Switzerland, comfortably beating Nigeria 11–5, with a hat-trick from Bruno and seven different scorers in all. Brazil continued to perform with an 8–1 win against Bahrain, the same result as against Japan at this stage of the competition in 2008, with Buru this time claiming four goals. Finally, Brazil finished off with a decent 4–2 win against Switzerland, who they would eventually beat in the final, finishing on top of the group with 9 points.

In the quarter-finals, Brazil played the runners-up of group C, Italy, who they beat in last years final. Italy may have been up for revenge but despite a challenge for Brazil, a hat-trick from André helped Brazil onto a 6–4 win to progress on into the semi-finals. In the semi-finals Brazil met Portugal, again, at the same stage they did last year. However, despite the epic 5–4 win for Brazil last time, this match was much more one sided and with seven unique scorers yet again, Brazil eased past Portugal, 8–2, to make it to another final.
