#21 Luizao

Then

A squad player in Scolari's side, Luizao usually came on for Ronaldo when the legendary Brazilian number 9 had to be rested. Luizao made 2 second half substitute appearances in the tournament. Luizao was playing for Corinthians in 2002.

Now

Luizao last played for the Brazil national team in 2002. After the World Cup, the striker made a move to Germany where he played a couple of decent seasons for Hertha BSC. He, however, soon returned to Brazil and played for clubs like Sao Paulo, Santos and Flamengo before playing his last professional club game at Sao Caetano in 2008. Luizao has stayed away from media attention since then and it is unsure as to what the former World Cup winning striker is up to at the moment.
