Cunha gives Brazil what Endrick does not — a centre-forward who can drop in, hold, and combine with Raphinha and Vinícius in midfield areas. The Ancelotti shape often asks the No. 9 to occupy two centre-halves; Cunha’s body strength is the reason he likely starts.

Strengths

Hold-up play and link with wingers
