The Verdeoro coach spoke on the eve of the match against Haiti and announced that there will be some changes to the lineup: “It’s normal after a match like the one against Morocco. But nothing serious, no failures”
The usual multilingual show, this time 4 (Portuguese, Italian, Spanish and French) because no one asked him questions in English, and then smiles, jokes and clear concepts: Carlo Ancelotti knows that his Brazil must improve, that with Morocco he played a bad first half and a normal second, and he is ready to raise the general level of the team in the match against Haiti tomorrow night.
MAXIMUM TRUST
—
“We didn’t play a good match, we know it, we did self-criticism and we accept those of others, as long as they are constructive. There is pressure, it’s normal, but also great trust, at least on my part. I’m sure that my team will do well in this World Cup, I have no doubts. I said it and I repeat it, the World Cup cannot be won in the first match”. There will be some changes: “Yes, it’s normal after a match like the one against Morocco. But nothing serious, no failures.”
MANY IDENTITIES
—
Two interesting things. The first on his Brazil: “I don’t want a team with just one identity, I want a team that knows how to do many things: defend in a low block, press high, be compact, attack with many players. You will never see a Brazil coached by me with just one identity, that’s not what I’m looking for.”
NON-STAR TEAMS
—
The second on the World Cup, to an answer on the exploits of the various Vinicius, Mbappé, Haaland, Kane, Messi: “No, I don’t think this will be a World Cup of stars, it will be a World Cup of teams, and of great intensity. I have seen national teams that play a very different game from each other, and for this reason I think that the stars will not decide this World Cup”.
