RIVALDO CONSIDERING INTERNATIONAL FUTURE
The Barcelona playmaker was booed throughout the World Cup qualifying match, which saw Brazil produce a stuttering performance, only claiming victory courtesy of an injury-time winner by Milan`s Roque Junior.
A disillusioned Rivaldo said: "What will my future be? I don't know yet, but the fans exaggerated things. They crossed the line, they were too harsh. I am going to have to rethink my life with the national team.
"I have always given everything, maximum effort, but I am not being recognised for that reason.
"Maybe the time has come to stop, and think about everything before choosing my path. I confess that I am leaving here very sad."
The Brazilian hero is now fully prepared to hang up his famed number 10 shirt, previously worn by legends such as Pele and Zico, for good - following this latest attack.
The victory left Brazil second in the table, still trailing Argentina.
