""We talked yesterday: this match was for a test and we will continue doing tests in the November games. "Our planning doesn't change. It was a good lesson tonight. There are things we need to learn from today's game, especially in the second half. "Individual errors do not affect the players' presence in the team. What we have to evaluate is the team's reaction after the first error, which was not good.""
""Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti says his side will learn a "good lesson" after forfeiting a 2-0 lead to lose against Japan in Tuesday's international friendly. The Selecao were cruising thanks to goals from Paulo Henrique and Arsenal's Gabriel Martinelli, before a second-half collapse saw the hosts take the win in Tokyo. Midfielder Casemiro labelled the result as "unacceptable" in what turned out to be a frustrated rant, but the head coach took a more measured approach to his post-match assessment.""
Brazil forfeited a 2-0 lead and lost to Japan after a second-half collapse that overturned goals from Paulo Henrique and Gabriel Martinelli. Midfielder Casemiro called the result "unacceptable," while coach Carlo Ancelotti described the match as a test and said the team must learn from its second-half errors. Ancelotti emphasized that individual errors will not determine selection but that the team's reaction to the first mistake, particularly Fabricio Bruno's error, caused a mental collapse and loss of balance. Brazil remain World Cup-qualified but must improve standards ahead of the tournament.
