Ancelotti: Neymar Cannot Be Replaced as Brazil Begin New Era

1 / 2

Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti has described Neymar as an irreplaceable talent following the forward's retirement from international football. Ancelotti said Neymar earned his World Cup place through his quality, despite competition from younger attacking players. The veteran forward's tournament was limited by a knee injury, with him playing only 37 minutes across three matches. With Brazil's all-time leading scorer now retired from the national team, Ancelotti will use upcoming fixtures against Australia and India to continue rebuilding the squad around a new generation of players.
