Dunga Omits Ronaldinho And Ronaldo From Brazil's Confederations Cup Squad

The pair have been left out by the coach for the tournament in South Africa...

reunião (Dunga) - Brasil
Dunga has not included Ronaldinho or Ronaldo in his Brazil squad for next month's World Cup Qualifiers or the Confederations Cup this summer.

The AC Milan midfielder has been out of form for club and country lately and earlier this year he was only amongst the substitutes in the game with Peru.

Ronaldo on the other hand has been rediscovering his old self again since his return to Corinthians and has been scoring freely in Brazil.

Despite calls for him to be chosen by Dunga the coach has not selected him though and he will have to wait for a chance to return to the national team.

Brazil take on Uruguay in Montevideo on June 6 and then host Paraguay in Recife four days later, before travelling to South Africa for the Confederations Cup in the summer.

Goalkeepers: Julio Cesar (Inter Milan), Gomes (Tottenham Hotspur), Victor (Gremio)

Defenders: Maicon (Inter Milan), Daniel Alves (Barcelona), Alex (Chelsea), Juan (AS Roma), Lucio (Bayern Munich), Luisao (Benfica), Kleber (Internacional), Andre Santos (Corinthians).

Midfielders: Anderson (Manchester United), Gilberto Silva (Panathinaikos), Josue (VfL Wolfsburg), Ramires (Cruzeiro), Elano (Manchester City), Felipe Melo (Fiorentina), Julio Baptista (AS Roma), Kaka (AC Milan)

Forwards: Alexandre Pato (AC Milan), Luis Fabiano (Sevilla), Nilmar (Internacional), Robinho (Manchester City).
