FIFA Confederations Cup 2013: Five players to watch out for as Brazil meet Japan

2. Oscar

The diminutive midfielder has gained the admiration and trust of Luiz Felipe Scolari. He would be high on confidence after having scored his first goal in their convincing 3-0 win over France. Scolari is likely to employ two deep-lying midfielders, and that will allow Oscar the freedom to dictate the game with his creativity. He looks the part of the primary play-maker for the team playing in the center of the pitch, and thrives when on the ball. He has the vision and, more importantly, the skills required to execute that vision; we can expect a match-winning performance against Japan.
