The effectiveness of Brazil’s trio of midfielders made up of Real Madrid’s Kaka (pictured left), Fiorentina’s Felipe Melo, and Panathinaikos’ Gilberto Silva (pictured right) in winning the recent Confed Cup in South Africa has had a reflection on the players’ FTBL ratings.

Kaka has grabbed the lead in the ranking of Brazilian midfielders with 167.14 points, while his two partners in the national team follow behind. Kaka picked up more than 60 rating points in the 6 games he played in the competition.

Felipe Melo and Gilberto Silva both earned approximately 50 rating points in the 6 games to boost their ratings to 152.20 and 128.53 points, respectively.
