1. Neymar

Brazil v Japan: Group A - FIFA Confederations Cup Brazil 2013

The ex-Santos forward had been in the news for his glamorous Barcelona transfer but it remained to be seen if he could do it for Brazil on the big stage. He opened the scoring for Brazil with a stunning 3rd minute strike and announced himself on the big stage. While that may not be enough to convince his bitter critics, the rest of his performance was testament to the fact that he belongs. He was the dominant figure on the pitch for much of the second half. He will pose the most significant threat to El Tri with his goal scoring ability. His ability to manufacture something out of nothing is the mark of a big player. The player to watch out from Brazil, for the next game and for the tournament.
