Brazil, Ancelotti satisfied: We will improve, we want it to be Brazil's

After the false half-step in the match against Morocco, Carlo Ancelotti's Brazil started the engines. The Italian coach did not hide his satisfaction after the Selecao's convincing victory over Haiti with a score of 3-0.

'It was a complete match, we did much better in the first half. In the second half we had more control and after 3-0 we slowed down a bit, but we created many chances and could have scored even more goals - said Ancelotti - it was what we expected from this match, more quality, fewer mistakes, more efficiency in attack and more control in defence. I saw what I wanted, we are improving and we will improve even more'

Ancelotti specifically mentioned Matheus Cunha and Vinicius, the scorers for the 5-time world champions in this match.

'Matheus was excellent, he managed to create a lot of problems for the Haitian defense, he took advantage of the passes and he was a killer in front of goal - added Ancelotti - Vinicius has arrived in very good condition, but we don't want it to be his World Cup, we want it to be Brazil's World Cup'

Brazil is top of its group and qualification to the knockout stage is very close.

'In terms of intensity it was a good match - said Ancelotti - of course we still need to improve and we will improve to be ready for the knockout phase. We want to win against Scotland to be first in the group, it would be important. We want to prepare well, but it will not be easy. They have their characteristics and they created problems for Morocco, as they can create problems for us. We have to focus on the match to keep calm and clear-headed'

Finally, Ancelotti also spoke about Neymar's condition.

"Neymar will train individually and then on Monday he will join the group and be ready for the match against Scotland," Ancelotti said.
