RIO DE JANEIRO (AFP) — Five players who did not play in Brazil's friendly international in Haiti have not been called up for their 2006 South American World Cup qualifier against Bolivia at Sao Paulo.
Cafu, Kaka, Dida, Lucio and Ze Roberto have been punished by the Brazilian football federation (CBF) for not appearing in the August 18, 6-0 victory at Port-au-Prince.
The three AC Milan players Dida, Cafu, and Kaka and Bayern Munich's Lucio and Ze Roberto, who were not released by their clubs, will also not play in the friendly against Germany in Berlin next Wednesday.
Real Madrid star Ronaldo supported the decision saying that the CBF wanted to preserve the honour of those who wear Brazil's green and yellow colours.
