A combination photo shows Argentina's former player Claudio Caniggia (R) during a news conference in Rio de Janeiro on July 3, 2014, and Argentina's former player Daniel Cordone (L), who was named as Caniggia in the lineup during their international masters friendly soccer match against Brazil at Dunas stadium in Natal, November 23, 2014. A consumer rights official has vowed to question the organisers of a masters football match after Argentina brought a lookalike rather than the advertised Claudio Caniggia to take part in a veterans game, Brazilian media reported on Monday. In place of Caniggia, famous for his distinctive long blonde hair, Argentina fielded lookalike Daniel Cordone, the former Velez Sarsfield striker who once had an unsuccessful stint at Newcastle United. Big screens at the Dunas arena in Fortaleza put Caniggia in the lineup but locals discovered the ruse. REUTERS/Nuno Guimaraes (L) and Pilar Olivares (R) (BRAZIL - Tags: SPORT SOCCER HEADSHOT)
