Controversial defender who made the World Cup squad after FIFA reduced an original ban handed down for a drugs offence. Kali played in the lion's share of Angola's qualification programme and the decision by the governing body was a pre-tournament boost for coach Luis Oliveira Goncalves who regards the no-nonsense central defender as a key member of his starting line-up. At club level the 26-year-old plays for Barreirense in the Portuguese second division where he is also a mainstay in the side due to his aerial presence and ability to use the ball intelligently from the back.
