The Brazilian National Team has scheduled two friendlies for March 2026. Carlo Ancelotti's team will face France and Croatia. The CBF has not yet revealed the date, time, and location of the matches.
The organization believes these are two strong European opponents and that it will be an interesting test for the 2026 World Cup, which begins in June. Brazil has already faced South Korea and Japan in October, and Senegal and Tunisia in November.
Currently, France holds the third position in the FIFA world ranking. Croatia is in tenth place. The Brazilian National Team is in fifth place.
FIFA held the draw on Friday in Washington for the groups of the 2026 World Cup, which will be played in three countries: the United States, Mexico, and Canada.
The 48 teams were divided into 12 groups, with four countries each. Brazil was drawn into Group C, alongside Morocco, Haiti, and Scotland.
Canarinho's matches will be on June 13 (Saturday), 19 (Friday), and 24 (Wednesday). The complete schedule, with times and locations, will be released this Saturday at 2 PM (Brasília time).
