The session began with some stretching and passing, before a warm-up game with the teams more mixed up than earlier in the week.

Lucio and Thiago Silva were on opposing sides, while the expected attacking quartet of Neymar and Ronaldinho, and Ganso and Leandro Damiao were also split up.

Ronaldinho played as if he had never been away. Although he missed an open goal early on, he made some mesmerising runs and some trademark tricks and flicks, including a stunning close range overhead-kick that led to a goal.

Neymar was another player to impress, while David Luiz was clearly enjoying himself as he pranked his teammates.

The game was played in very good spirits, with plenty of laughter as well as some excellent passing and skillful control.

Mano Menezes will be pleased that his side are enjoying their football, and will hope they will be able to replicate it against Ghana.

Remember to check back at Sambafoot for all the build up to Brazil v Ghana, and live updates from Craven Cottage during the game! Kick-off is 19:45 UK time on Monday.
