The head coach of the Brazil national team, Carlo Ancelotti, commented on the fans' chants for Neymar after the 1:2 loss to the French:

"Now we have to talk about those players who are in the national team, who played, who gave their all, showed character, and worked very hard.

I am satisfied with them."

"I think Raphinha played very well. He suffered a muscle injury in the first half and we had to replace him.

But he had a lot of good opportunities and moved excellently without the ball."

Neymar was not included in the Brazil national team roster for the friendlies against the French and Croatians.

The World Cup will take place from June 11 to July 19.
