Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed Brazil's starting lineup for the friendly against Australia, scheduled for Tuesday at Suncorp Stadium. The manager has kept the same XI that drew 1-1 with the Australians on September 25th.
Ancelotti spoke about the national team's project in a comment released by the CBF. "We have a future," the Italian coach said, reinforcing his confidence in the ongoing work. The statement comes after the draw in the last preparation match, where Australia's goal was scored by Nestory Irankunda in the 68th minute.
The defence consists of Matheuzinho, Marquinhos, Vitor Reis and Douglas Santos. In midfield, Bruno Guimarães and Danilo Santos are joined by Estêvão, while Raphinha and Vinícius Júnior support striker Endrick.
Vinícius Júnior is the team's top scorer this season with four goals in five appearances. The team's recent form reads three wins, one draw and one loss from its last five outings.
