Brazil (minus Marcelo Martins) have already qualified for next summer's World Cup

Bolivia striker Marcelo Martins took the unusual step of posing in Brazil's team photo before the teams drew 0-0 in World Cup qualifying.

Having qualified through his father, the 30-year-old played for Brazil until under-20 level, before switching to Bolivia at senior level.

Martins, who was on loan at Wigan in 2012, was invited to stand with the Brazil players before kick-off.

The five-time World Cup winners have already qualified for Russia 2018.

Elsewhere, Uruguay's qualifier in Venezuela also finished 0-0.
