🚨🇧🇷 Raphinha is still struggling with severe blisters on his foot.

The winger is expected to start against Haiti, but there is still some uncertainty. The blisters continue to cause significant discomfort.

Because of the issue, Raphinha missed some training sessions, took part in others at a lower intensity, and occasionally trained with reduced workloads.

The coaching staff want him in the starting lineup, but a final decision will be made before kickoff.

🇧🇷 | Following a frustrating 1-1 draw against Morocco, Carlo Ancelotti’s Brazil faces immediate tactical pressure in their Group C clash against Haiti in Philadelphia. While the Seleção must fix their goal difference, Sébastien Migné’s Haiti enters with defensive confidence following a resilient 1-0 loss to Scotland.

To restore order, Brazil's overall approach must prioritize tempo control, early verticality, and sustained counter-pressing to trap Haiti in their own half.

This requires critical personnel adjustments: replacing the static Igor Thiago with the dynamic Matheus Cunha will inject frontline fluidity, while refreshing the midfield engine replacing a struggling Casemiro with Fabinho or a more mobile presence alongside Bruno Guimarães will safeguard against transitions and recycle possession rapidly.

To pierce Haiti's inevitable low block, Brazil must abandon predictable passing and actively create structural overloads. Wingers Vinicius Junior and Raphinha need to be fed early to isolate Haitian fullbacks Carlens Arcus and Wanilsen Experience in 1v1 situations before the defensive block can shift to double-team them. Stretching the backline this way will open the half-spaces for late, penetrating runs from Bruno G or Lucas Paquetá. Furthermore, Brazil can exploit Cunha’s gravitational pull; his physical, diagonal decoy runs can drag center-backs out of position, opening up central lanes for Vinicius to cut inside on his right foot.

Ultimately, Brazil holds the upper hand, but a failure to ignite a high-octane start will play directly into the underdogs' hands.
