I’d even take him to court. Then we’ll see what happens, but he cannot stay.”Legendary Brazil striker Romario slammed Ancelotti after Brazil’s World Cup exitGettyRomario continued: “We had Dunga. He lost, and he left. We had Luiz Felipe Scolari, he won the World Cup, so he stayed. We had Tite. He lost, he stayed, and then he lost again.“Now we have this damned Ancelotti, who has lost and will keep on losing.“He made a lot of mistakes at this World Cup, and none of you in the media are saying a word.“If he were a Brazilian coach, you would have torn him apart by now.“But because he’s a foreigner, nobody says anything.”Ancelotti, who was appointed Brazil boss in May 2025, recently extended his contract until after the 2030 World Cup.Casemiro cut a dejected figure after the full-time whistleGettyIt remains to be seen whether the 66-year-old will lead Brazil in Morocco, Spain and Portugal in four years’ time, but the country’s Football Director Rodrigo Caetano has thrown his support behind the Italian.“He is our manager and will be throughout this cycle,” Caetano said after the Norway defeat.“One of the main reasons we failed in this World Cup was not to have proper, stable guidance long-term that would have prepared our national team the way it should for a World Cup and we cannot make the same mistake again.”Decisions questionedAncelotti has been criticised for various decisions made both before and during the World Cup.His choice to select an injury-prone Neymar in his 26-man squad ahead of Chelsea’s Joao Pedro split opinion in the country.Neymar, who played just eight times for Santos this season, picked up another injury prior to the World Cup and was afforded just 40 minutes of playing time.Neymar fought back tears at the end of the defeat to NorwayAFPReports in Brazil honed in on the performances of Ancelotti’s side which fell way below the level of expectation.Following Brazil’s exit, Ancelotti said: “We must continue to work and improve and find new ideas. I believe that this loss is not the end, but the beginning of a new cycle.“For me, it’s a disappointing result and a great sense of sadness but it also leaves a truly valuable experience, an excellent working group. “In fact, I want to thank the lads for the atmosphere they created.“Things don’t always go our way – not everything is always perfect.
