1. Neymar
The former Santos striker has been the revelation of this tournament. He has lived up to the expectations so far. After two stunning volleys and an astonishing assist, he continued the exhibition of his diverse skills with a remarkable free-kick against Italy. He was substituted soon after as Scolari tried to save his big weapon for the semifinals. He will be running the channels and threatening with his lightning quick pace. It is difficult to foresee how Uruguay’s ageing legs will be able to cope with his threat.
