Focus on James Rodriguez: Ramires


Teresopolis (Brazil), July 2 (IANS/EFE): Brazil’s midfielder Ramires says the five-time World Champions need to be wary of Colombia’s key man James Rodriguez during their World Cup quarterfinal face-off in Fortaleza, Friday.

“I have never played against him before, but I had seen him since he was in Porto, I watch the Portuguese channels and I had seen him play. He is having an excellent World Cup. We’ll have to give him special attention so he doesn’t surprise us,” said the Chelsea midfielder, reports EFE.

Brazil’s substitute goalkeeper Victor also hailed Rodriguez, describing him as a “different” player.

Victor also praised his Colombian counterpart David Ospina, but rejected to list him in his personal list of the World Cup’s best goalkeepers, which included his fellow Brazilian Julio Cesar, Mexican Guillermo Ochoa and Nigerian Vincent Enyeama.
