Episode description
Brazil is getting ready to host the 2014 World Cup. But the preparations have become marred in controversy.

Brazil's World Cup-winning footballer has transformed himself into a serious, hard-working politician. Tim Franks meets him for Crossing Continents. Is this a genuine transformation for one of Brazil's most notorious celebrity bad-boys? Producer: Linda Pressly.
