Dorival Junior sacked as Brazil coach after Argentina humiliation

  • Brazil sacked their head coach Dorival Jr. On Friday after a 4-1 qualifying loss to Argentina in Buenos Aires, a decision announced by the country's football confederation .
  • The CBF's decision stemmed from a series of negative records and Brazil's worst-ever World Cup qualifying campaign, leading to a lack of confidence in Dorival's work.
  • Prior to Dorival's dismissal, Brazil struggled, including a quarter-final exit from the 2022 World Cup and negative records under interim coaches, contributing to calls for change.
  • Despite Ednaldo Rodrigues previously assuring fans that Carlo Ancelotti would take charge after his Real Madrid contract ended, the move never materialized, and Ancelotti denied recent contact with the CBF, stating, "My contract speaks for itself."
  • With Brazil's pursuit of Ancelotti uncertain, Brazilian media suggest Al Hilal's coach Jorge Jesus is a potential replacement, while Ancelotti faces pressure at Real Madrid and recently criticized LaLiga's scheduling and Javier Tebas, stating Tebas is "obsessed" with Real Madrid and "lacked respect" for coaches.
