Next Saturday, Brazil will face India in the first-ever match between the two countries. The tendency is for coach Carlo Ancelotti to make several changes to the team again. One certain name is goalkeeper Pedro Morisco. The Coritiba player will start, as part of the rotation planned by the coach.

In addition, Ancelotti intends to give more minutes to the players who came on in the second half of the matches against Australia. The fact that India are a technically weaker opponent will help the coach with his evaluations from the sidelines.

“It’s a group of new players, and many are here for the first time. As for the matches, we want to build chemistry as quickly as possible. We don’t have much time with the Brazil national team, and we need to adapt quickly. We’ve been working well, and the boss has given us a lot of confidence. The most important thing is to welcome the youngsters and give them confidence, because they are certainly the future of our national team,” said Gabriel Magalhães.
