Micale names his Brazil Olympic list

Olympic National team manager Rogerio Micale has given his final list of players that will represent Brazil in the upcoming Olympic Games which will take place on August 5th in Rio de Janeiro. The Canarinha will be the leader of Group A where they will play against South Africa, Iraq and Denmark. Preparations for the tournament will begin on July 30, now all the eyes are set on Neymar Jr and what he can do to keep the Golden Medal home for the first time in history. 

Manager Micale has all his trust placed in what Neymar can do, he said: "Neymar is one of the best players in the world, and any coach would like to have him. I know what Olympic gold means for Brazil. I have been waiting for this moment for a very long time, now I'm eager and ready."

Another great surprise for Brazil, will be the inclusion of Douglas Costa, who missed the Copa America due to an injury but will be ready to help Brazil in this tournament. The combination of Neymar and Douglas, alongside youngster Gabriel will give us one of this Olympics' most deadly attacking trios. Let's just hope they can live up to the hype. 

Brazil Olympic squad in full:

Goalkeepers: Fernando Prass (Palmeiras), Uilson (Atletico Mineiro).

Defenders: Luan (Vasco da Gama), Rodrigo Caio (Sao Paulo), Marquinhos (Paris-Saint Germain), Douglas Santos (Atletico Mineiro), Zeca (Santos), William (Internacional).

Midfielders: Rafinha (Barcelona), Rodrigo Dourado (Internacional), Fred (Shakhtar Donetsk), Thiago Maia (Santos), Felipe Anderson (Lazio).

Attackers: Neymar (Barcelona), Douglas Costa (Bayern Munich), Gabriel Barbosa (Santos), Gabriel Jesus (Palmeiras), Luan (Gremio).
