Ronaldinho finds himself back in the Brazil team for his country's friendly game against World Cup winners Italy at the Emirates Stadium in London on Tuesday. Catch all the live international friendlies here on Live Sport Network.

 

 

Brazil coach Dunga had dropped Ronaldinho for his side's last three games due to loss of form. The AC Milan star was unable to get into the national side after his unimpressive showing in Brazil's 0-0 draw against Bolivia last September. Ronaldinho has missed World Cup qualifiers against Venezuela and Colombia in October and a friendly against Portugal in the following month. Dunga said he decided to include Ronaldinho following his good showing in club colors.

However Juventus star Amauri does not find a place in the side despite indications that he may apply for an Italian passport and thus be eligible to play for that country. Luis Fabiano, Adriano and Pato have also been included in the squad for the February 10 friendly against the Italians.

 

 

Italy coach Marcello Lippi played safe as far as squad selection was concerned and once again overlooked Alessandro Del Piero. Francesco Totti and Paolo Maldini are also left out despite expressing an interest to don the national colors after announcing their international retirements.

Former skipper Maldini will retire from all forms of football at the end of the season, but he wants to get a final send off from the national team. Lippi may probably include Maldini in his squad in June when Italy play another round of friendlies.

 

 

Lippi has also called up Gianluigi Buffon, Andrea Pirlo, Alberto Aquilani, Antonio Di Natale and Gianluca Zambrotta who missed Italy's 1-1 draw against Greece last November with injury issues.
