TAFFAREL (1), goalkeeper for BRAZIL, has dreams of imitating his Paraguayan counterpart CHILAVERT. In recent trainings he has participated as a striker in long sessions of free-kick and penalty shoot-out practice. "If it ends up in a penalty shoot-out against DENMARK, I'll be ready;" he declared before returning to NANTES where the Quarter Final will be played. "I'm not all that bad with a ball at my feet" he concluded.
