Brazil Swaps Strikers for Haiti Clash
20 Jun
Summary
- Matheus Cunha and Danilo are starting for Brazil.
- Two changes made after drawing with Morocco.
- Brazil faces Haiti in World Cup Group C match.

Brazil is making tactical adjustments for their World Cup fixture against Haiti, scheduled for Friday. Manager Carlo Ancelotti has opted to start forward Matheus Cunha and right back Danilo. These selections mark a shift from the team's previous lineup, which featured Igor Thiago and Roger Ibanez.
The decision comes after Brazil's opening match in Group C, which resulted in a 1-1 draw against Morocco. The team's performance in that game has prompted Ancelotti to revise the starting eleven, aiming to secure a more favorable outcome against Haiti. The new lineup includes Alisson in goal, with Danilo, Gabriel Magalhaes, Marquinhos, and Douglas Santos forming the defense. Casemiro, Bruno Guimaraes, and Lucas Paqueta are set to anchor the midfield, while Matheus Cunha, Raphinha, and Vinicius Jr will lead the attack.
