Neymar's Brazil recall is a leap of faith by Ancelotti - but could it work?

“Neymar can be important for any team,” Cafu, the last man to captain Brazil to World Cup glory, tells Sky Sports. “Seeing Neymar playing well, physically and technically, that can help the Brazil team a lot.” It has just been a long time since anyone saw it.

Talk about a psychodrama. Neymar-mania continues to engulf Brazil and one wonders whether the five-time champions of the world should be above it. But the longing for the country's all-time top scorer in the men's game to have his last dance is an obsession.
