Can you name every member of Brazil's 2002 World Cup-winning squad?

To mark Ronaldinho's 40th birthday, Sports Mole challenges you to name all 23 members of Brazil's 2002 World Cup-winning squad.

One of the greatest footballers Brazil has ever produced celebrates his birthday today, with Ronaldinho turning 40 in the rather humble surroundings of a Paraguayan prison.

The former Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona playmaker's troubles with the law cannot detract from a remarkable football career, though, with the personification of 'Joga Bonito' always playing with a smile on his face and trying to delight the fans.

More often than not he succeeded, with his range of tricks and flicks arguably unsurpassed in the annals of professional football, helping him to be named World Footballer of the Year in 2005 and 2006.

Perhaps his crowning glory came in 2002, though, when he helped Brazil to their fifth - and as things stand last - World Cup title.

His birthday therefore gives us a great chance to test whether you can remember who else joined him in that squad of Samba superstars - a challenge much harder than it might sound at first!
