Brazil goalkeeper backs World Cup ball

Brazilian goalkeeper Julio Cesar has offered his public backing for the ball that will be used in the World Cup tournament this summer.

In previous tournaments, the equipment used has been criticised heavily by goalkeepers and outfield players alike.

However, Julio Cesar says that this time around, the ball is much more suitable for a major tournament.

"The ball is a good one, we had contact with it today and it seems great," says Cesar.
