"Brazil is lucky to have a player like him" - Ancelotti on Chelsea winger Estevao
Carlo Ancelotti heaped praise on Estevao following Brazil's victory over Senegal, where the Brazilian winger not only found the net but also delivered an impressive all-round performance.
Details: After the Brazil vs Senegal friendly, which ended in a 2-0 win for the Seleção at Emirates Stadium in London, Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti shared his thoughts on the team's rising star, Estevao.
“I've seen him play for Chelsea, and the thing is, he doesn't need much time on the pitch to showcase his quality. He can come on for five minutes and you immediately see what he's capable of. Brazil is lucky to have a player like him, and so is Chelsea,” said the head coach.
In the match against Senegal, Estevao opened the scoring in the 28th minute, with Manchester United midfielder Casemiro later adding a second. The Seleção cruised to a confident victory.
Reminder: Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhães was forced to leave the pitch due to injury during the match against Senegal.
