Brazil won two important victories in October against Chile 2-1 and Peru 4-0, thanks to the brilliance of two newcomers Igor Jesus and Luiz Henrique, players who play domestically and have only had 2-4 caps for the national team.

This is the reason why coach Dorival Junior decided to keep them in the Brazilian team for the competition in November and the final round in 2024. Meanwhile, two stars, Neymar and young talent Endrick, were removed from the competition list.
According to coach Dorival Junior: "Endrick has not played much at Real Madrid. Meanwhile, we do not have time to train or for these players to return to good form. Will they be able to perform well? That is the question that needs to be answered."
Meanwhile, in the case of Neymar, coach Dorival Junior explained: "I can confirm that Neymar is ready to return to the team, but because he has played very few minutes recently after returning from injury. So we respect the club's decision. We will be ready to call Neymar back in the next call-up (March 2025) when he is really ready."
Without Neymar and Endrick, the Brazilian team will continue to be without the services of number 1 goalkeeper Alisson in the November match due to injury. Therefore, Ederson will still play the main role in guarding the goal, along with experienced defenders Marquinhos, Eder Militao, Gabriel Magalhaes.
The midfield consists of Bruno Guimaraes, Lucas Paqueta, along with the return of Vinicius, Rodrygo and Raphinha. In particular, the two unfamiliar players Igor Jesus and Luiz Henrique are still the secret factors of coach Dorival Junior.
Neymar must wait longer to return to the Brazilian national team
Brazil, who have recovered with two wins in October, have climbed to fourth place in the South American qualifying standings for the 2026 World Cup, with 16 points from 10 matches. They are still six points behind leaders Argentina, but are five points clear of the group behind them, firmly in the hunt for a place in the finals.
In November, the Brazilian team will meet Venezuela (away) and strong opponent Uruguay (home) at 4:00 a.m. on November 15 and 7:45 a.m. on November 20, respectively. If they continue to win these matches, the Selecao will truly revive their strength and confidently prepare for the 2026 World Cup.
