The Selecao captain has been on his holidays lately. He took a break from playing for his country at last month’s Copa America. It was at the behest of his club boss, Luis Enrique.

But the forward was back in action and showed amazing energy. He was at the team’s Granja Comary training complex after arriving in Teresopolis on Monday. It was ahead of the Rio showpiece which begins on August 5.

The Brazilian coach delivered a host of instructions to his players. They had a rather motivated look in their faces with the arrival of their famous captain. They were having fun before putting them through their paces with a blend of fitness drills and ball exercises.

The Games represent a great opportunity for the team. It has fallen on hard times to redeem themselves in the eyes of their football-loving compatriots.

This summer’s disastrous Copa America campaign ended with defeat to Peru and the dismissal of boss Dunga. Then  followed the embarrassment of a 7-1 result at the hands of Germany in their home World Cup two years ago.

If they are to turn things around then Neymar, the team’s sole global star, and Gabriel Jesus, who leads the Brazilian league’s goal-scoring charts, will be signal. Meanwhile, they will face South Africa, Iraq and Denmark in the opening stages.
