"We should be talking about those who were here-who played, who gave their all, who stepped up, and who worked hard. I am satisfied."
"We know the quality Neymar possesses. He is indispensable for any national team, especially when he is in form."
"I think Raphinha played very well. He had some muscle discomfort at the end of the first half and we had to substitute him."
Neymar's absence was felt during Brazil's 2-1 loss to France, with fans chanting for his inclusion. The Brazil coach emphasized focusing on the players present. Neymar's form with Santos is declining, but teammates like Casemiro still believe in his talent. Brazil's attack, led by Vinícius Júnior and Raphinha, lacked power, with Ancelotti defending their performance despite Raphinha's injury. Raphinha will be assessed for the next friendly against Croatia, while Ancelotti noted positive aspects in the team's play.
