Brazil have Neymar to thank for their progression to the Confederations Cup semi-finals as the new Barcelona signing disguised a dour team performance by providing his most impressive display to date for the Selecao.
Despite a record of 138 goals in 230 games for Santos, the 21-year-old remains a player who divides opinion. Having had his name mentioned alongside the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, he was adjudged to have not adequately displayed the ability to warrant such comparisons when in the global eye. Doubts over how good he could become had, perhaps justifiably, arisen.

Who is your top defender of the season?
This
is the sixth edition of the prize, which has previously been won by
current holder Cristiano Ronaldo (twice), Barcelona star Lionel Messi
(twice) and Wesley Sneijder in 2010. As part of the build-up to
this year's gong, we are running a series of polls asking readers to
vote for their own best players in each position for what should be an
intriguing debate.
After kicking off with the goalkeepers, we now

having been the best defender in the world game over the last 12 months. Bayern
Munich were undoubtedly the team of the season and they have three
representatives in our list. Right-back Philipp Lahm, central defender
Dante and left-back David Alaba all impressed throughout 2012-13.
