What will be the starting selection against Paraguay?
This Saturday’s activity, June 7, indicated a possible change in the starting lineup for the game against Paraguay.
With the return of Raphinha, Ancelotti must mess with training. The Barcelona striker lives a big phase of the season with 57 games, 34 goals and 22 assists, and is a strong candidate for the best player of the year award.
The tendency is for the Barcelona player to return to the starting lineup at the right end, which should take Stephen out of the team.
Brazil goes to the field with: Alisson, Vanderson, Marquinhos, Alexsandro, Alex Sandro; Casemiro, Bruno Guimarães and Gerson; Raphinha, Vini Jr, Richarlison. Technical: Carlo Ancelotti.
The Brazilian team still has two workouts before the duel against Paraguay. The next activity will be this Sunday, at 11am (Brasilia). On Monday, Brazil does a last work at Neo Chemistry Arena, the stage of the game.
