Former Real Madrid boss Ancelotti is the man tasked with securing a record extending sixth World Cup title for Brazil this summer.
They’re certainly one of the favourites heading into the tournament across North America, but the Italian admits they don’t have the same star power.
"The more experienced player has to have more responsibility, the younger player has to have less pressure. We all have a lot of responsibility and pressure,” Ancelotti told reporters during a press conference.
“And what should we do? Share it. It can't be individual; we have to share the pressure so that it decreases a little.
"Sometimes, we talk a lot about how Brazil doesn't have a star. It might be true, we don't have Pele, Romario and Ronaldo, but we can have a shared responsibility."
"We've worked a lot on defense. We're going to work a lot on that. I don't want to take away the creativity of the attacking players.
“They have a lot of quality, I don't want to create confusion. Defensively, it's a daily piece of information until the last game of the World Cup. Our work is focused on that. The defenders, full-backs, midfielders, they all have a very important role."
