If Maguire and Sants played for Brazil…

Five-time world champions Brazil open their 2010 World Cup campaign tonight against North Korea. But how would the team look represented by the likes of Hector Sants, Nick Cann and Rupert Murdoch?

Thanks to website BrazilName, IFAonline has assembled a new-look Brazil team made up of 11 financial industry heavyweights.

After casting your eye over this motley crew, why not enter your name into the generator and tell us your Brazilian name?

Tiano

Tony Hayward, BP chief executive (goalkeeper) - OK, so, a la Robert Green, his spills could cost the team, but if he can handle a rather personal attack from the President of the United States, surely he can hack the pressure of going between the sticks?

Hectisco

Hector Sants, FSA chief executive (right back) - Already announced his retirement, but who better to protect the right?

Cinho

Nick Cann, IFP chief executive (centre back) - Unless Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney each possess at least 500 CPD points, nought shall pass.

Fildo

Fay Goddard, PFS chief executive (centre back) - If somebody's going to get around Fildo, it won't be without a thorough examination first.

Chra

Chris Cummings, AIFA director general (left back) - Always going to be difficult filling the boots of one Roberto Carlos, but Chra has represented the team well. Some say he wanders from his post a little too often though.

Thoressen

Otto Thoresen, Aegon CEO (right midfield) - Fans' favourite Thoressen is known for his wacky goal celebrations, particularly ‘the rain dance', which he used for the first time after scoring the equaliser in a World Cup qualifier against Uruguay last year.

Thiaca

Tidjane Thiam, Prudential chief executive (centre midfield) - Recently converted from a bold, ambitious midfielder into a more defensive role after one very high-profile miss.

Cowdaldo

Clive Cowdery, founder, Resolution (centre midfield) - His radical idea to merge the four midfield positions into one has split the football world.

Vincildo

Vince Cable, business secretary (left midfield) - This veteran winger has been running up and down that left flank for years, but age (sorry, Vince) and injury means he often ventures into the middle in a bid to influence proceedings.

Maguirincha

Jon Maguire, marketing director, Voila Asset Marketing (striker) - Out-of-favour in recent years, Maguire is back, although some still doubt whether his return will benefit the team.

Rupa

Rupert Murdoch, owner, News Corporation (striker) - Veteran striker no longer the dominant force he once was, but he continues to reach for the Sky.
