After the painful elimination and controversy over the penalty takers, coach Carlo Ancelotti has explained the reasons why star Vinicius Jr was not the one to take the decisive kick.
According to Ancelotti, the decision was not random, but based on detailed statistical analysis.
"We did some statistics and the best was Raphinha," the coach declared.
He further explained the hierarchy of players who were available to shoot.
"Of the players available, the best was Neymar, then Igor Thiago, then Bruno Guimarães and finally Martinelli."
Despite this list, Ancelotti admitted that the final choice at the moment of the match was dictated by the state of the players on the pitch. "We chose Bruno because we thought he was the best on the pitch at that moment," he concluded.
This statement sheds light on the technical staff's strategy in the face of tense situations from the penalty spot, showing that for Ancelotti, statistics and the current state of the players remain the main selection criteria.
