August 26 Brazil announced the new list of the list, Neymar was defeated, and Ancelotti explained this.

Ancelotti explained why Neymar was absent: "There are new players in the second call-up lineup. Neymar is not on the roster. He had a small problem last week. But Neymar does not need to be tested. Everyone knows Neymar - the coaching staff, Brazilian national team, Brazilian fans know him. Like all other players, Neymar must maintain good physical condition to help the national team achieve good results in the World Cup. These two games are the final stage of the qualifiers, and we need to end this qualifier perfectly."

Asked whether Neymar was in the national team plan before his thigh had mild muscle edema last week, Ancelotti said: "Our idea is to develop a larger roster with 51 or 52 or more players. Then in the last game before the draft, last weekend, we set the final list. There may be injuries in the weekend game."
