Can you name Brazil's 2002 World Cup squad?

Sports Mole challenges you to name Brazil's 2002 World Cup squad on the 20th anniversary of the Selecao's fifth triumph.

Twenty-two years have passed since Brazil earned the fifth and most recent World Cup star on their badge, conquering the globe at the 2002 finals in South Korea and Japan, overcoming tournament controversy to shine under Luiz Felipe Scolari.

Brimming with some of the finest South American talents to ever grace the game, the Selecao barely broke a sweat in Group C, where they achieved nine points and scored 11 goals in clashes against Turkey, Costa Rica and China to ease into the knockout rounds.

Then came a relatively stress-free 2-0 success over Belgium, a dramatic quarter-final beating of England that still haunts David Seaman's dreams, and the edging out of Turkey in the semis by just a single goal.

After Germany denied co-hosts South Korea a spot in the showpiece match, Brazil ensured that the hard work of their European counterparts would be for nought, but subsequent attempts to return to former glories have ended in abject failure.

To celebrate the 22nd anniversary of Brazil's fifth World Cup triumph, Sports Mole challenges you to name the Selecao's squad from the 2002 tournament.
