Carlo Ancelotti talked about his first win as manager of the Brazilian national team, securing a place in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The only goal came from Vinicius Junior, while Neymar, absent from the squad due to injury, remains part of Ancelotti's plans. Ancelotti praised the collective effort of the players in securing the victory. He expressed confidence in a broad pool of players, considering around 70 for the national team, indicating that evaluations would continue as they prepare for the World Cup.
"I saw Neymar at the hotel. We hugged. When he is well, he can play anywhere on the pitch. Today, he could have done the same job as [Matheus] Cunha, as number 10. In that position, he can be very dangerous."
"I have a long list of players who are all over the world. There are about 70. We will have time to evaluate each one. All 70 of them can go to the World Cup."
