Brazil head coach, Carlo Ancelotti, has hit out at criticisms of his playing style.
Ancelotti has highlighted Selecao sides of the past, how they balanced attack and defence to win .
According to him, the country that will win this year’s World Cup, is the team that concedes the least number of goals.
“Joga Bonito? Brazil won their last two World Cups by combining talent and defense,” Ancelotti said.
“In 2002 they played with three center-backs and in 1994 they used two lines of four to boost Romário.
“The World Cup is won by whoever concedes the least, not whoever scores the most. I don’t like being called defensive, but it’s key for the team.”
