The brazilian national team coach Paulo César de Oliveira PC announced today the 12 players who will take part in the friendly matches against Netherlands as well as for the next international tournament in Dubai (United Arab Emirates), in which together with Brazil there will be also Italy, England, Iran, Romania and Egypt.

The friendlies against the dutch selection coached by Vic Hermans will take place in Mossorò (RN) on January 19th and in Fortaleza (CE) on January 22nd.

The tournament in Dubai is scheduled since January 28th to February 2nd.

This time Pc has chosen to select just players who are not involved in European competitions, in favour of the best players admired during the national tournaments like the Liga Futsal 2005, the Regional leagues, the "Taça Brasil" or in the state leagues.

Two new entries in the team: Cabreúva (Intelli/Penalty) and Dionísio (ACBF), while the former Ulbra's pivot Indio, who just signed with the spanish side Barcel Euro Puebla (and not with Intelli/Penalty, as seemed some days ago) is back in the team.
