Although it still has not played with Brazil, Dani Alves is living the World-wide with the maximum illusion. It is his last appointment with the 'canarinha' and is comporting like leader from the bench. In any case, the footballer has been white of a sinfín of criticisms because it was summoned with 39 years to a World-wide, when it has not played practically at all in the last months.

In the two parties that have not been the team needed a defence, I am more than attack. I am to serve to Brazil. If I have to touch the battery, will be the best battery. Give me a mission and I will execute it".
It answers to the criticisms
On the other hand, it has pronounced on the criticisms that has received he and the trainer, Tite, by his announcement, declared that they would not arrive these comments if it was, still, competing in big clubs: "If it was playing in the Barcelona this would not happen. In Brazil always is necessary to look for to somebody to criticise him, like the rest of players are in big teams of Europe, has touched me to me".
