Brazilian national soccer team coach Carlo Ancelotti, who said, "Two wins on the Asian tour is a natural goal," put the best members in the showdown with the South Korean national soccer team A.
Brazil selected a large number of star players, including Vinicius Junior (Real Madrid), flagship striker Matheus Cunya (Manchester United), and Supernova Esteban (Chelsea), in an A-match friendly match against Hong Myung-bo at 8 p.m. on the 10th at Seoul World Cup Stadium. The Brazilian Football Association also shared the Korean version of the lineup separately on its official SNS.
In a 4-2-4 formation, Brazil set up Cunha, Vinicius as the vanguard of attack, and placed Hodrigo (Real) and Istevan on both wings. Casemiro (Manchester United) and Bruno Guimarães (Newcastle United) built a midfield duo, and four-backs were set up by Vitinho (Botapogo), Eder Militão (Real), Gabriel Magalyangis (Arnall) and Carlos Augusto (Inter Milan).

At an official press conference on the 9th, Ancelotti said, `South Korea is very strong. Transition is also very fast. be different from Japan in terms of players' characteristics and abilitiesSon Heung-min (LAFC) has had a lot of experience in Europe. Of course I know that he is an important and threatening player. But Korea is a team that plays soccer well with the ball. He has good defensive pressure and is good at counterattacking. I think this game will be a good game for us."
Regarding the absence of some key resources such as Hapinha (Barcelona), Alisson (Liverpool), Ederson (Fenerbahce) and Van der Son (AS Monaco) due to injuries, he said, `The Korean game can raise our team's level and attitude. I hope that the players will gain a lot of experience in that area. I think it will help me prepare for the World CupHe did not hide his expectations for the performance of substitute players such as Rodrigo.
Brazil's sharp attack with Vinicius, who has shown lighter body movements since the opening of this season, and the combination of Magalyangis-Millitang center back, which is also leading in the European big leagues, are expected to be a big test for Hong Myung-bo, who entered the preparation mode for the 2026 North-China World Cup finals.

Just before the lineup was announced, Brazilian media 'Globo' highlighted the fact that Hishalisson fell into a swamp of silence for 11 consecutive A matches (1,039 minutes) after scoring against Korea (4-1 wins) in the round of 16 teams at the 2022 Qatar World Cup. Hishalisson has scored in both of his last two matches against South Korea, including a friendly match against South Korea (5-1 wins) in June 2022. First of all, the day starts on the bench. He is expected to face Son Heung-min in the second half of the game.
Brazil, ranked sixth in the FIFA rankings, has an advantage with seven wins and one loss in its A-match showdown with South Korea, ranked 23rd. South Korea aims to win for the first time in 26 years after beating Brazil with Kim Do-hoon's winning goal in Jamsil in March 1999, even before Lee Kang-in was born.
