Brazil twice crushed the Anseloti World Cup dream. Now this is the one they share
On May 24, Carlo Anseloti was still in charge real MadridOn 25 May, he took a long flight across the Atlantic so that he could be presented to the media of the world on 26 May. BrazilName for new coaches and their squad Conmebol World Cup qualifier But Ecuador And vs. Paragua,
On 27 May, he was in Rio de Janeiro at Estadio Olympico Nilton Santos Botfogo‘S Copa Libertdorus Match against Universdad day ChileOn 28 May, he was investigating outside CelecoTraining facilities in the hills outside the city before catching FlamengoMatch against Deportivo tachira In Markan.
Ancelotti is throwing herself in her new job with a verse that assumes the fact that she turned 66 next week. In his own low-minded manner, he ends the enthusiasm of an 11-year-old child-at the age of which he has his first memories. FIFA World CupIt was Mexico ’70, and was its native Italy An epic against West Germany came through the semi -finals.
“We were excited to play the final against Brazil,” he said. “But Brazil was really strong, Pelé, Jerzinho, Toasto, Rivelino, Gercen, ClodoAl.
Now that talent is in his disposal because he goes in search of his World Cup dream. Ancelotti has been a top class club coach for so long that it is easy to forget their history, and how bound it is with the World Cup.
“I have three experiences with the tournament,” he said. “In 1986, I was a player.” It did not go well, and Italy tried to hold on the crown he won four years ago.
He returned to the team on domestic soil after four years, a central midfield enforced with a solid passing range. He was injured during the campaign. “I agree 100%,” he laughs when it is suggested that Italy would have a better chance to win, he fit. He came in third place.
Four years later, when Ancelotti Arrigo was assistant to Sacchi, Ajuri Gone a better. Italy reached the final, lost to penalty – Brazil.
“It was a great experience to spend a lot of time with his peers,” Ancelotti recalled, “and prepare for important games where all countries are behind you. You have a great feeling about it.”
It explains its new choice of jobs.
“My idea was to try again, to have such a feeling, and so now I am going to try with the world’s best national team,” he said.
The time spent as an assistant to Sacchi makes him aware of the differences between the management of a club and a national team.
“The difference is that now I have less time to prepare a game and prepare a team.”
For some, this is a powerful challenge. For great simplification, perhaps not.
“Football is not so complex, in my opinion,” said Anseloti. “Best players have to play, but you should be able to find a good balance among them. The major word in football is ‘talent’, of course. You cannot win without talent. But the balance is also very important, because the team has to be balanced between defense and attacks.”
Would he have seen the last game of Brazil, when the Dorval Junior team was already humiliated by his way to lose 4-1. Argentina,
“Yes,” ancelotti serious, “I saw it.” And with a little laughter, he said, “No balance. Its simple. Talent, but no balance.”
The severity of defeat greatly explains its short -term function.
“Brazilian players, in general, have more talent than others,” he said, also successfully worked with many during a stored club career. AC Milan, Chelsey And Paris Saint Germain“And then you have to find a connection between talented players and others. Each team does not have 11 talented players – others support talent, sacrificed, commitment, attitude.”
His first squad was prepared with the help of members of the coaching staff of CBF, Brazil’s Football Association. There were some names that he insisted on being one of them CasseroOut of international photo since 2023. Manchester United (And former real madrid) midfielder can expand the ancelloty on the pitch well, helping the supply of the structure that was very badly missing against Argentina.
For the rest of the team, “We will definitely play with a back four. After that, we can customize. Brazil has a really great wings, so we can play 4-4-2, but we can also go with 4-3-3-3 or 4-5-1.”
The model can be well pre –Kylian mbappa Real Madrid, where Vinissius Junir Cut from the leftist wing to fill the front position of the center, but there will be no definite approach.
“I don’t want my teams to have a clear identity,” Anseloti said. “Take the game forward, sit back, press high, defend less – there are many things you need to do to be successful. After 40 years, I still don’t know the best strategy to win the game, but I know it depends on the features of the players you have done, and I want to do so with Brazilian players, they are meeting with a purpose: to win the World Cup: to win the World Cup:”
The 2026 is a contract of Ancelotti until the end of the tournament. By then, he must have been judged a success, if he wins the World Cup, or a failure, if he does not.
“I know,” he said, “but there is not much pressure than real Madrid. The pressure is the same. But I don’t have to think about pressure, I have to think that I have a great opportunity. I want to live this period in the best of my possibilities.”
With its embossed eyebrow and low-key leadership, the attraction of ancelotti was running right from the beginning. He gave his first news conference in Spanish, but already there were attempts to speak in Portuguese, and it was the promise that he would still be caught with another language.

Carlo Anseloti first held Brazil training session
Carlo Anseloti prepared its Brazilian squad in its first training session before facing the Ecuador in the South American qualifier for the World Cup.
Nevertheless, some will still see him as an intruder.
CBF made a big attempt to welcome ancelotti. In his presentation, in 2002, Brazil’s Last World Cup winner Luiz Felip Scolari took a stage to symbolically pass on baton. The 1994 World Cup winning coach Carlos Alberto Parrera and Zico were video messages.
All the old guards are not mesmerized in the idea of being an foreigner as in charge of all five -time world champions. Prominent among them are former Real Madrid and national team coach Vendorlei Luxembourgo, who last week at the Brazilian program “Galvo E Eigos”, expressing that he had nothing against Anseloti, complained outs ups that “Brazilian coaches are now useless? We are very true?
“I think the world is now global,” Anseloti commented, as usual, trying to take heat from the situation. If the results are disappointing, the temperature will increase.
Everything depends on what happens during a few weeks in the middle of next year. Ancelotti’s task is to organize the team to free the talent, such as Mário Zagall was able to do in Mexico in the match that left such an impression on 11 -year -old ancelotti.
Brazil thwarted the dream of its World Cup then and again in 1994. Now the great team and the great coach are working together for a common dream of bringing the trophy back to Brazil for the first time since 2002.
