Everybody Knows My Life. I Won A

Football Is The Only Sport Where You Put People Together, It Doesn't Matter If You Are Rich, Or Poor, Or Black, Or White. It Is One Nation. This Is The Beauty Of Football.

Brazil Is Crazy About Football. People, They Wait For This Moment, But This Doesn't Mean We Are Going To Win The Championship. That Is The Problem.

The First World Cup I Remember Was In The 1950 When I Was 9 Or 10 Years Old. My Father Was A Soccer Player, And There Was A Big Party, And When Brazil Lost To Uruguay, I Saw My Father Crying.

I Always Had A Philosophy Which I Got From My Father. He Used To Say, 'listen. God Gave To You The Gift To Play Football. This Is Your Gift From God. If You Take Care Of Your Health, If You Are In Good Shape All The Time, With Your Gift From God No One Will Stop You, But You Must Be Prepared.'

Of Course, My Father Was A Soccer Player. He Used To Play Very Good. Then, When I Was Young, Eight Or Nine Years Old, Ten Years Old, I Just Want To Be Like My Father.
