Brazil turns its coach

Dorival Jr and Brazil, it's over. The coach Auriverde was dismissed this Friday, a few days after the slap received by his team in Argentina (4-1).

“The Brazilian Football Confederation informs that the Dorival coach Júnior no longer heads the Brazilian national team. Management thanks the technician and wishes him full success in the rest of his career. Now the CBF will endeavor to find a replacement for it ”can we read in a press release.

Dorival Jr had been in office since January 2024. He had led the Seleçao at COPA America, with the key to elimination in the quarterfinals. During the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, Brazil is only fourth.

Raphinha and his teammates are six points ahead of the barragist, Venezuela, and are therefore not in danger. But Brazil aspires to better, in terms of the game, as in terms of results.
