Ian Wright has questioned Tite’s decision not to turn to Arsenal star Gabriel Martinelli in Brazil’s penalty-shootout defeat by Croatia.
The South American side endured spot-kick heartbreak as Rodrygo and Marquinhos failed to convert following a dramatic 1-1 draw after extra-time. Brazil failed to kick into gear during regular time as the likes of Neymar, Richarlison and Vinicius Jr struggled to impact the game.
Tite attempted to refresh his side in the second half and extra time by introducing Rodrygo, Manchester United forward Antony and Flamengo's Pedro. Those decisions left former Arsenal striker Wright baffled as Gunners star Martinelli watched on from the bench.
