The former Brazilian champion now serves as a commentator for Rete Globo

There is also Leo Junior, unforgettable Brazilian champion star at Spain 1982, among the commentators in Qatar. The former Flamengo man works for Rete Globo. This World Cup does not convince him: “A strange, timid tournament. There is too much fear. So many teams think mostly about defending themselves. In fact there have been many draws in this first phase. I respect this idea but clearly the show suffers,” his words to Corriere dello Sport.

The Brazilian midfielder also addressed Brazil and, in particular, the absence, due to injury, of Neymar, the team’s pivotal man: “Undoubtedly the absence of the most important player is a problem. But I am sure that the other guys, feeling more responsibility, will be able to give their best to prove that they deserve the Seleçao jersey.”
