The Brazilian National Team concluded its preparation this Friday for the first friendly match of the October FIFA Date. Coach Carlo Ancelotti led the fourth training session in Seoul, this time with the full squad. With 26 players available, the coach gave hints of the lineup he intends to field against South Korea at 8 AM (Brasília time), at the Seoul World Cup Stadium.
Unlike previous training sessions, which had more than 30 minutes open to the press, Ancelotti restricted access to just 15 minutes.
During this period, the players performed warm-up, passing exercises, and concluded with the traditional rondo. Although the rest of the session was closed, it is expected that the coach conducted final technical and tactical adjustments.
In a press conference, Bento indicated starting, and Ancelotti signaled that the attack will be formed by Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo, and Estêvão.
Therefore, it is likely that the team will take the field with: Bento; Douglas Santos (Carlos Augusto), Gabriel Magalhães, Éder Militão, and Vitinho; Casemiro, Lucas Paquetá (Bruno Guimarães), and Matheus Cunha; Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo, and Estêvão.
After the friendly against South Korea, the delegation will remain in Seoul until Sunday, when they will depart for Tokyo. The second match will be against Japan, next Tuesday (14th), at 7:30 AM (Brasília time), at the Ajinomoto Stadium.
