Brazil are set to sack head coach Dorival Junior after the five-time world champions' embarrassing 4-1 defeat by Argentina, according to reports from South America.
Wednesday's defeat in Buenos Aires left Brazil fourth in South America’s World Cup qualification table, a huge 10 points behind Argentina. And, according to Brazilian outlet UOL Esporte, Dorival is set to pay the price.
There is little chance of Brazil not qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. There will be an unprecedented 48 teams at the Finals, meaning six South American countries will qualify automatically. Brazil are six points clear of Venezuela in seventh, with four rounds remaining.
