Can you name the 2002 World Cup All-Star team?

To celebrate Roberto Carlos's 47th birthday, Sports Mole asks you to name the 16 players selected by FIFA for the 2002 World Cup All-Star team.

One mention of the 2002 World Cup evokes a flood of memories, even 18 years on from the first edition of the tournament to be held in Asia.

From surprise packages Turkey and South Korea making it as far as the semi-finals to England's heartbreaking exit and Ronaldo's goalscoring to Ronaldo's haircut, it was a tournament which lives fondly in the memory of millions.

Brazil ended up lifting the trophy for a fifth time, but they were by no means the only headline-grabbing nation and plenty of other players shone on the biggest stage aside from those in yellow.

Roberto Carlos was one of 16 players to make FIFA's All-Star team for the 2002 World Cup, and his birthday today gives us a perfect opportunity to ask - how many of the other players to get the nod can you name?
