KEY POINTS:
The New Zealand soccer team will face some of the sport's legendary names in Pool play at the Olympics in Beijing next month.
How about Ronaldinho and Robinho for starters?
Barcelona's Ronaldinho and Real Madrid forward Robinho will lead Brazil's assault on a first Olympic football gold in Beijing, the BBC website was reporting today.
Manchester United midfielder Anderson is also one of three Premier League players selected in the 18-man squad.
The Olympics is the only significant title Brazil have never won.
The Brazilians won the silver medal twice, in 1984 in Los Angeles and 1988 in Seoul and they won the bronze in 1996 in Atlanta.
Brazil are in Group C with Belgium, China and New Zealand and begin their campaign on 8 August against Belgium.
