TERESOPOLIS Brazil (Reuters) - Brazil's goalkeeper Julio Cesar has backed the official World Cup football, playing down possible worries over the performance of the adidas-made Brazuca.

“The ball is a good one, we had contact with it today,” the former Inter Milan and Queens Park Rangers player said of the Brazuca, which is a playfully slang word for native Brazilians.
