NETO CONDEMNS BRAZIL FOR CALLING UP MARTINELLI

Neto, a former midfielder for Brazil, has criticized manager Tite for selecting Gabriel Martinelli of Arsenal for the World Cup in Qatar.

Insisting that Martinelli as a player hasn't accomplished anything in club football and that Arsenal isn't even competing in the Champions League, he called the choice a "joke" and a "disgrace."

Martinelli, age 21, was a member of Tite's team when it was announced for the competition earlier this week.
