After the call-up, last Monday (26), at a hotel in Rio de Janeiro, Ancelotti visited the Brazilian national team museum, at the CBF headquarters.
The 65-year-old Italian coach is seeking an "immersion" in Brazilian football and is expected to be a regular presence in the country's major stadiums.
On Wednesday (28), Don Carleto is expected to be at the Maracanã, for Flamengo x Deportivo Táchira, in the Libertadores, and at the Neo Química Arena, on Sunday (1), for Corinthians x Vitória, in the Brasileirão.
Alex Telles and Igor Jesus, from Botafogo, were on Ancelotti's "pre-list" but were not called up for the next Brazilian national team commitments.

Chelsea vs. Palmeiras: TV channel, time and how to watch Club World Cup game
The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup was expanded in part to create matchups exactly like Friday's quarterfinal between English power Chelsea and one of Brazil's biggest clubs, Palmeiras. Chelsea was heavily favored to win Group D, but a 3-1 upset loss to Flamengo – who sit just two points ahead of Palmeiras in the Brazilian league standings – dropped them to second place. The Blues overcame a last-second equalizer from Benfica in the round of 16, scoring three times in extra time to claim a 4-1 victory to earn a place in this match. Palmeiras came out on top in one of the tightest groups of the tournament, with a dramatic late comeback against Inter Miami securing the top spot. In the round of 16, they took on a domestic rival in Botafogo, going to extra time before Paulinho pounced for the game's only goal to set the Verdão up with this big test in Philadelphia.

Euro 2025: Sweden beats Denmark yet again this year on Filippa Angeldahl's goal
GENEVA -- Sweden swept past Denmark yet again on Friday, winning 1-0 at the Women's European Championship for a third victory this year over its near neighbor. One month after a 6-1 rout in Stockholm, Filippa Angeldahl's smart finish of a neat passing attack in the 55th minute was enough for an impressive Swedish team on another hot evening in Switzerland. Angeldahl severely tested Denmark goalkeeper Maja Bay Ostergaard to save a long-range free kick in the first half and beat her with more power in the second. The midfielder exchanged passes with captain Kosovare Asllani — making her 200th appearance for Sweden — before striding on to shoot low past Ostergaard's dive. 'There's so much nerves before the first game," Angeldahl said in translated comments. "It was really important to win.' Denmark star forward Pernille Harder's shot from distance rattled the Sweden crossbar in the 81st. Later Friday in Group C, favored Germany was playing Poland in St. Gallen. It was the third time Sweden and Denmark opened a Women's Euros facing each other and it ended 1-1 in both 2005 and 2013. Sweden beat Denmark twice in a Nations League group this year, starting with 2-1 in Odense in February. That time, Harder was marked toughly by veteran Sweden defender Magdalena Eriksson who has been her partner since 2014. Eriksson was a surprise absence from the lineup on Friday due to a muscle strain lingering since a warmup game. She was ably replaced by 38-year-old Linda Sembrant, playing her 157th game for Sweden. Playing in 86-degree heat (30 C) at the 6 p.m. kickoff, both teams took breaks for drinks several times in each half. The playing surface was mostly shaded by the stadium roof though fans along one length of the field were bathed in direct sunshine for the entire match. 'It was a fairly slow moving match, particularly in the first half. We didn't have the tempo we really wanted," Sweden coach Peter Gerhardsson said, Gerhardsson declined to blame the weather, though added he 'wouldn't mind a bit more of a breeze' when his team plays Poland on Tuesday. That has a later 9 p.m. local time start in Lucerne. The drinks delays helped to add up to 16 minutes of total stoppage time, including a delay of more than four minutes for a video review early in the game. Denmark thought it might be getting a penalty kick for a foul on Harder. The free kick was eventually awarded to Sweden by Brazilian referee Edina Alves because winger Madelen Janogy was tripped by a Denmark player before falling into Harder. 'We didn't understand anything at all,' Sweden coach Gerhardsson said. 'We didn't see it on the (stadium) screen.' Yellow-clad fans at the Salève mountain end of the stadium brought classic Swedish pop music into the game. They sang in both halves to the tune of Abba's 'Lay All Your Love On Me' accompanied by a beating drum. Before kickoff the stadium observed a period of silence in memory of Portugal and Liverpool forward Diogo Jota who died this week aged 28 in a car crash in Spain. Denmark coach Andrée Jeglertz said his players were not distracted by confirmation Thursday evening he will join the Manchester City women's team after Euro 2025. 'It's definitely not something that affects the players. They knew I was going to leave,' Jeglertz said in translated comments. 'The most important thing for me was that this was announced before the tournament rather than mid-tournament.'
