"We had the opportunity to lift the World Cup trophy, but now we're going to lift the solidarity cup", said world champion Cafu, 53, who won the title in 1994 and 2002.

The challenge, promoted by TV Globo and broadcast live in the country, and which will bring together artists from different areas and other world champions, will take place at the Maracanã stadium in Rio de Janeiro, and the aim is to raise funds to help the tens of thousands of people who have suffered from the floods in Rio Grande do Sul.

Brazilian international Tamires or music stars such as Beto and Wesley Safadão will also brighten up a match that will be coached by Brazil's current coach, Dorival Júnior, and one of his predecessors, Mano Menezes, who is from Rio Grande do Sul.

"I want to invite all the Brazilian people to participate in this solidarity chain for our brothers in Rio Grande do Sul. We need everyone's support", appealed Dorival Júnior.

The funds raised will be donated to associations that help those affected by the floods that left 161 dead and 82 missing, according to the latest official report.

More than 580,000 people were forced to leave their homes when the floods 'swallowed' entire cities.
