Kaka recalled to Brazil squad, but Ronaldinho is left out
Posted Wednesday, March 06, 2013 by YAHOO Sport
Brazil manager Luiz Felipe Scolari has named his squad for friendlies against Italy and Russia, with Real Madrid's Kaka recalled for the pair of matches.
Playmaker Ronaldinho has been left out after disappointing in the defeat to England at Wembley Stadium and failing to impress domestically in South America.
Santos starlet Neymar; Paris Saint-Germain's Lucas Moura and Bayern Munich defensive rock Dante are three other names that have made the cut ahead of March's clashes with Fabio Capello and Cesare Prandelli's men.
Scolari failed to select Kaka for his first squad as coach since his return to the Selecao hot seat, but the midfielder could get the chance to prove his worth in the two matches in Europe after impressing for Madrid in February.
