Vini not even top five! Ancelotti reveals Brazil's penalty order 🇧🇷 | OneFootball

Carlo Ancelotti revealed the order of the Brazilian national team’s penalty takers after the elimination against Norway this Sunday (5).

The coach emphasized that Bruno Guimarães was the main option among the players who started the round-of-16 match.

Vini Jr. was not mentioned among the five priority takers. Check the order:

1 - Neymar

2 - Igor Thiago

3 - Raphinha

4 - Bruno Guimarães

5 - Gabriel Martinelli

According to Ancelotti, the order was defined based on penalty conversion statistics. See the explanation:

Bruno Guimarães missed a great chance to open the scoring for Brazil this Sunday by failing to convert a penalty in the 11th minute of the match.

This was the first penalty missed by a Brazilian player during the 90 minutes or extra time since 1986.

Forty years ago, Zico had his penalty saved in the match against France that eliminated Brazil in the quarterfinals.
