The beginning of the 2003 season was very special for the World Champions. In an exciting final match against Serbia and Montenegro, Brazil won the World League gold medal for the third time, beating its opponent 3–2 in Madrid
. After that, the team was defeated by Venezuela
in the semifinal of the Pan American Games
in Santo Domingo
(Dominican Republic
) and ended up with the bronze in the competition. However, the Brazilian squad beat Venezuela by 3–0 in the South American Championship final only one month later. That year ended with Brazil conquering the last title it had not won yet: the World Cup
, in Japan
.
In 2004, Bernardinho led the Brazilian team to a fourth title of the World League
. In August, the Brazilian men's team won the second Olympic gold medal of its history, which happened in Athens
in 2004
(the first one was conquered in Barcelona

). In the final, Brazil beat Italy
3–1.
In the 2005 season, the Olympic Champion conquered four medals. In the final match against Serbia and Montenegro, Brazil won another gold medal in the World League, beating its opponent 3–1. After that, the team became second in the America's Cup
, defeated by the United States
