In the middle of July a new international challenge will take place between the brazilian and paraguayan borders. The first game will be played in Asuncion on July 15th, while the second battle is set to happen on July 17th in the paranaense town of Foz do Iguaçu. Brazilian head coach Pipoca had already announced his roster two weeks ago, including the former Gazprom Ugra's keeper Tiago (soon to be announced by a brazilian club) who will be actually replaced, as reported today by CBFS, by the Intelli/Orlandia's goleiro Guitta). Below have a look at the complete roster selected by Pipoca to face Paraguay, that includes also the "newly iranian" Ciço, who just joined AFC Futsal Club champions 2010 Foolad Mahan after leaving Inter Movistar.
