Soccer-World Cup pressure giving Brazil's Luiz sleepless nights

By Andrew Downie SAO PAULO, May 20 (Reuters) - Brazil defender David Luiz says he is having sleepless nights worrying about the World Cup, while his team mate Dani Alves describes the intense pressure of being tournament hosts as "delicious". "We are anxious, I wish it was starting tomorrow," Luiz said at a commercial event in Sao Paulo on Tuesday. It is a great chance and we are privileged to play a World Cup in front of our own fans. I can't wait for it to start." The articulate Chelsea defender said the atmosphere in the Brazil squad was the best he has experienced in more than a decade as a professional player.
