Carlo Ancelotti has expressed satisfaction with Brazil's victory over Haiti, emphasizing the team's calm and focus ahead of their next match against Scotland.
Brazil's victory over Haiti has brought a sense of relief to the team, and coach Carlo Ancelotti addressed the media with a noticeably brighter demeanor compared to the aftermath of their draw with Morocco. Ancelotti praised his players, particularly Matheus Cunha, for their outstanding performance. "Matheus Cunha was excellent; he created many problems for the opponent's defense, effectively utilizing spaces and proving to be very efficient in front of goal," stated the Italian coach. He also spoke highly of Vinicius, emphasizing that the focus should not solely be on him but on Brazil as a team.

Looking ahead to their next match against Scotland, Ancelotti stressed the importance of securing a win to top their group. "We want to prepare for this, although it won't be easy. Scotland has well-defined characteristics, having troubled Morocco," he noted. The coach highlighted the significance of maintaining composure and focus, crediting the team's psychologist for their support. Despite the success, Ancelotti remains open to changes in the team lineup for future matches. "I don't want to give the team an immutable identity. I might change something in the next game," he added.
Ancelotti was particularly pleased with the team's first-half performance but acknowledged a dip in intensity after their three-goal lead. "It's understandable to slow down thinking of upcoming matches, but we could have done more," he reflected.
