Vanderlei Luxemburgo questioned Carlo Ancelotti’s changes

The Brazil National Team faces Egypt this Saturday (06), in the final test before its World Cup debut against Morocco. However, former Flamengo coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo blasted Carlo Ancelotti’s approach because of the team selection.

— Running tests on the eve of the World Cup… something is wrong. We’ve had this coach for quite a while, and the results in the qualifiers haven’t been good. The points tally is the same as Dorival’s, Diniz’s… Tests? There should already be a core lineup — said Vanderlei Luxemburgo, former Flamengo coach.

WHAT’S THE CONTEXT OF THE SITUATION?

Coach Carlo Ancelotti will use the match against Egypt to carry out tests and make observations ahead of the World Cup. The experienced manager is still searching for the ideal lineup, since the game against Panama left doubts in some positions.

As a result, Carlo Ancelotti has already announced the Brazil National Team lineup for the clash against Egypt. Thus, Brazil will take the field as follows: Alisson; Wesley, Marquinhos, Ibañez and Douglas Santos; Casemiro, Bruno Guimarães, Raphinha and Lucas Paquetá; Vinicius Júnior and Igor Thiago.

WHAT CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE TEAM?

Carlo Ancelotti made some changes compared to the match against Panama. Marquinhos and Ibañez take the places of Bremer and Léo Pereira. In midfield, Lucas Paquetá comes in for Luiz Henrique, while Igor Thiago starts in place of Matheus Cunha.

WHEN IS BRAZIL VS EGYPT?

Meanwhile, Carlo Ancelotti remains focused on the Brazil National Team’s final friendly before the World Cup. In this way, Brazil faces Egypt this Saturday (06), at 7:00 p.m. (Brasília time), in Cleveland, United States.
