Parreira wary of Ronaldinho pressure
Brazil coach Carlos Alberto Parreira is worried about the pressure being placed on Barcelona midfielder Ronaldinho ahead of the World Cup.
The 26-year-old World and European Player of the Year is expected to be one of the stars of this summer's tournament in Germany but Parreira is hoping the hype does not get out of hand.
"I'd like Ronaldinho not to have the responsibility to be the man of the World Cup, as everybody expects," he told Ataque magazine. "The world will demand that from him and it'll be difficult."
