Kaká, Ronaldo Nazário and Roberto Carlos debate Carlo Ancelotti’s lineup as Brazil draw 1-1 with Morocco at half-time in the 2026 FIFA World Cup: 🗣️ Kaká: “I don’t understand why Matheus Cunha and Ederson are on the bench. Brazil is lacking intensity and Morocco are winning too many duels in midfield. Paquetá hasn’t been able to control the game and Brazil look uncomfortable.” 🗣️ Ronaldo Nazário: “That’s exactly my point. Ederson gives you energy, ball progression and defensive balance, but Brazil are struggling to keep possession. Morocco look sharper, quicker and more determined right now.” 🗣️ Roberto Carlos: “And what about Cunha? If he was on the pitch, he’d be pressing defenders, tracking back and making life difficult for Morocco. Brazil need that aggression because Morocco are playing out too easily.” 🗣️ Kaká: “Casemiro also looks isolated. He’s trying to hold everything together but the midfield isn’t helping him. There have been too many misplaced passes and not enough movement.” 🗣️ Ronaldo Nazário: “Paquetá is a talented player but today nothing is coming off for him. Brazil need more control and more energy in the middle of the park. That’s why people will question why Ederson didn’t start.” 🗣️ Roberto Carlos: “The worrying thing is that Morocco look like the better organised team. Brazil have the better players on paper, but football isn’t played on paper. At the moment Morocco look more prepared for this match.” 🗣️ Kaká: “Ancelotti is one of the greatest coaches in history, nobody doubts that. But if Brazil don’t improve in the second half, the questions about his team selection will only grow. Cunha and Ederson are watching a game that suits them perfectly.” 🗣️ Ronaldo Nazário: “The World Cup doesn’t wait for anyone. You have to make decisions quickly and sometimes you need to be brave. For me, Brazil need changes if they want to win this game.”
