Judging by what we have seen in the FIFA U17 World Cup currently underway in India, Brazilian Serie A side Atletico Paranaense have a proper gem in their hands in the form of Marcos Antonio.

The diminutive midfielder has been one of the creative forces in Brazil's midfield alongside Alan and has been enjoying a superb tournament so far.

On Wednesday, he once again shone through in Brazil's Round of 16 clash against Honduras in Kochi as he drove the midfield and scored the second goal in a 3-0 win for Carlos Amadeu's boys.
