South Korea will host five-time world champions Brazil in an international friendly at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on Friday.
Ahead of Brazil’s friendly against South Korea in Seoul on Friday, Ancelotti said tactical development has been hampered by a lack of training with the full squad.
«I think more tactical work is needed to refine the game strategy. All this can be very important, but the most important part is not the strategy; it is the attitude of the players on the pitch. It doesn’t take much time to prepare for that,» Ancelotti told a news conference.
Meanwhile, South Korea captain Son Heung-min is set to break his country’s record for most appearances for the men’s national team when the country hosts Brazil on Friday.
The Los Angeles FC forward is set to win his 137th cap in the glamor friendly in Seoul, which serves as the build-up to next year’s World Cup in North America.
South Korea and Brazil have both qualified for the 2026 finals.
