The Brazilian team takes the field this Tuesday (10), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), to face Paraguay, at the Defensores del Chaco stadium, in a game valid for the 8th round of the Qualifiers. For the duel, coach Dorival Júnior will promote the entry of Endrick in place of Luiz Henrique. As a result, Rodrygo, who started the match against Ecuador centrally, will be moved to the right side.
In a press conference this Monday, the national team coach commented on the changes in the offensive sector and recalled that Pedro would be a perfect piece for the Brazilian attack.
“A reference man with mobility for me is ideal. Pedro has that and a lot of it. We've been thinking about Pedro's name since the first call-up and he knows it. He is a player who is perfect for the moment. I was very sorry for the injury he had. We lost a very important option, but the main thing is Pedro's feeling of being human. After that, it would be very important for the moment we are living in and would complete what we are designing”, said Dorival, before going deeper into Rodrygo.
“From Rodrygo, the last thing I want is for him to be reference, because it does not have this characteristic. The mobility he has at Real, the intelligence, the infiltration, is everything I want him to do in the Seleção and be able to execute movements without the need to fulfill a type of role. So he can use the best he has, as he had been playing with Vini and Bellingham up front, helping to rebuild his team. They have freedom in the middle forward, that's what we proposed when we placed the two closer. With Endrick, he opens up a little more to be positional with freedom of movement.”
Danilo cites Pedro as an example in his speechTeam captain, the right-back Danilo spoke to his teammates in the dressing room before the victory over Ecuador. The Juventus player recalled Pedro's injury and the time the striker will be absent.
“We just need each one of us to believe in what we have to do. Need some extra motivation? Pedro was here the day before yesterday, he was going to be a starter, (he's going to be) out for seven or eight months. What's our problem? From today onwards, every game is an objective, respecting those who made history with this shirt, respecting those who work from sunrise to sunset and, even so, at 10 pm they will watch the national team play", encouraged the captain.

The coach Dorival Júnior last Wednesday began drafting the lineup for the Brazilian team to face Ecuador, in the seventh round of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. He can promote changes in all sectors in relation to the team which he used in the Copa América.
Starters in the four matches of the tournament in the United States, the defender Marquinhos and midfielder João Gomes were removed from the team in training on Wednesday. In their place came Gabriel Magalhães and André. In attack, without counting Raphinha, who is suspended and not called up, Dorival selected Rodrygo on the right wing, forming an attacking trio with Endrick and Vini Júnior, his teammates at Real Madrid.< /p>
Initially, Pedro was among the starters, but he was injured right at the beginning of the activity. The lineup used for most of the training was: Alisson, Danilo, Éder Militão, Gabriel Magalhães and Guilherme Arana; André, Bruno Guimarães and Lucas Paquetá; Rodrygo, Vini Júnior and Endrick.
During the activity, Dorival made some changes, such as the additions of Beraldo, Wendell, Gerson, Lucas, Estêvão, among others.
The national team is doing its last training session this Thursday before the duel against Ecuador. Brazil is trying to rehabilitate itself in the World Cup qualifiers after four rounds without victories – a draw with Venezuela and defeats to Uruguay, Colombia and Argentina. With seven points from six games, the Seleção occupies sixth place in the competition, the last one that guarantees a direct place in the 2026 World Cup.
