The Brazilian National Team continues its preparations for the October FIFA international friendlies. This Tuesday, coach Carlo Ancelotti led Brazil's second training session on South Korean soil, this time with 21 players available. As a result, the coach has not yet given any indication of the lineup he intends to field this Friday against South Korea, at 8 a.m. (Brasília time).
The activity was open to the press for 40 minutes. After warming up with the players, Carlo Ancelotti split the squad for offensive drills on a reduced field. Then, with the goalkeepers training separately, the coaching staff divided the outfield players into three groups for a two-touch drill.
Also on Tuesday, four more players are expected to arrive: Bruno Guimarães, Joelinton, João Gomes, and Caio Henrique. Called up to replace Wesley, Paulo Henrique will join the group only on Wednesday and will thus complete the 26 players called up by Ancelotti.
Now, Brazil will return to training at the Goyang Stadium complex on Wednesday and Thursday, when Ancelotti is expected to define the lineup and players for the friendly against the Koreans.
In the first friendly after the Qualifiers, Brazil faces South Korea this Friday at 8 a.m. (Brasília time), at the Seoul World Camp Stadium. After the match, the delegation will remain in the Korean capital until Sunday, when they will travel to Tokyo, where they will play against Japan on Tuesday at 7:30 a.m. (Brasília time), at the Ajinomoto Stadium.
