KOLKATA: One of the iconic images from the 2002 World Cup was Brazilian captain Cafu climbing atop the podium at the Yokohama Stadium in Tokyo and hoisting the trophy high up in the air flashing a beaming smile. If that triumph was the zenith of his international career, it also started the gradual decline of Brazil’s reign in the game’s biggest stage, having managed to reach just one semifinal of the following four editions of the competitions since.
However, the legendary full-back — who was described by Alex Ferguson as “a player with two hearts” — believes that Neymar & Co. have it in them to end the drought this time around in Qatar.
