Ancelotti says to himself, "Sir Alex Ferguson is the only one more qualified than me".

Carlo Ancelotti, the coach of Brazil's national team, responded to criticism on social media after Brazil's 2-1 victory over Japan in the World Cup. He acknowledged that Sir Alex Ferguson, former manager of Manchester United, is the only coach with more match preparation experience than him, having prepared over 2,000 matches compared to Ancelotti's 1,400. Ancelotti emphasized that while he is unsure if he fully understands football, he believes Ferguson is the only person who could truly advise him. He also stated he is certain he is neither a genius nor an idiot. Brazil now faces Norway in the round of 16.

Bias read (Center): The article focuses on a sports-related event (World Cup match) and quotes Ancelotti's comments without any political framing or bias. It provides balanced reporting on his response to criticism and does not favor any political perspective.
