Morale high with the boss? Pick out the positives from Ancelotti’s debut 👀 | OneFootball

Coaching changes often give teams (or national squads) a new boost and open up opportunities for players who had previously seen little action.

In this context, the Brazilian National Team began the "Carlo Ancelotti era," but ended up with a 0-0 draw against Ecuador on Thursday (5th).

Who took advantage of the opportunity and scored points with the new coach? Leave your comment!

Brazil started with Alisson; Vanderson, Marquinhos, Alexsandro, and Alex Sandro; Casemiro, Bruno Guimarães, and Gerson; Estêvão, Richarlison, and Vini Jr.

Later, Carlo Ancelotti brought on Andreas Pereira, Andrey Santos, Martinelli, and Matheus Cunha. However, the score remained unchanged.

With the 0-0 draw, Brazil remained in fourth place in the Qualifiers, now with 22 points – Ecuador is the runner-up, with 24.

The next match for the National Team – and Ancelotti’s debut in Brazil – will be against Paraguay, in the 16th round of the Qualifiers.

The match is scheduled for 9:45 p.m. (Brasília time) on Tuesday (10th), at Neo Química Arena, Corinthians’ stadium.
