The memory of Carlos Caetano Verri Bledorn said Dunga will remain that of a player never tamed, always looking for perfection of its own performance and companions. What a hard and pure camp, a man with one face. Ijuí Born in Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul) October 31, 1963 grew footballing nell'Internacional de Porto Alegre (the coach of the youth care Emidio Perondi) in which after the audition, just fifteen we find him the nickname Dunga in the corresponding Portuguese Italian Puppy. The Cub of the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The attitude and the physical so they were not yet mature enough to stick on your skin with this affectionate name that will be remembered for his entire career. In 1980 he entered the turn of the first team, while being a reference to the youth with whom he won two junior championships. Despite the impressive muscle mass to be inexhaustible runner, Dunga began his professional journey as a finisher in the game of attack with the vice of goal. Guessed his potential as a director to cover the backlog of defense, was moved to the midline where they confirmed one of emerging midfielders in the mid 80s. Between 1985 and 1987 went to the Corinthians, Santos and then to finally to Vasco da Gama. On July 22, 1987
set foot in Italy as a new purchase of Pisa Romeo Anconetani, talent scout and chairman of volcanic society in the shadow of the Leaning Tower. Supporters of the Inter team remained in ecstasy for the arrival of the first great star of the club and mass invaded the entry of the local airport. In fact those in the know speak of the presence of Fiorentina behind the whole operation. In fact, since the early months of 1988 were chased rumors that claimed an imminent transfer of Dunga from Pisa to Florence for the summer adventure. Despite the player assured that the option of purple on his card had expired in the summer Dunga changed his shirt and came in Florence after the Pisa saved from relegation. The first season of the Brazilian in Florence was then that of 1988-89. Fiorentina was a team that young and interesting: Landucci, Battistini, Carobbi, Hysen and Celeste Pin in defense, Dunga, the exuberant Cucchi Enrico Mattei and the poor in midfield, with Alberto Di Chiara wing curve; Borgonovo and Baggio in attack, a pair renamed B2. The team had several acute (Florence a memorable victory against the league leaders Inter Milan 12 February 1989, which corresponded to the first defeat of the season for Milan, thanks to goals from famous robbery Borgonovo), but also a lot of inconsistency. Dunga complained Eriksson with the coach of the position held in the field and his desire to become a player setting and not just bursting. But the Swedish coach the 'Cub' was good as well as play. But he's not too much in the field and some bickering with Carobbi, Hysen and Bosco went down in history. The team then got the purple in the UEFA qualification play-off against Roma Perugia 1-0, with goals from former Pruzzo, the King of Crocefieschi.
After a great season from a performance point of view, the first sirens of the likely departure of midfielder Dunga lion began to be felt. Juventus Dunga pressed to rip and Baggio at Fiorentina.
In 1989 Brazil won the Copa America with Brazil of Lazaroni. The ensuing 1989-90 season was plagued by the same rumors of his possible departure from the stresses of changing with the new coach Dunga Giorgi who believed that he could give more, even though the South American would have demanded to play in a team of eleven fighters and not one in which the victories were shared between all the defeats but always attributed to the usual suspects. In 1990 he played the World Cup with Brazil but disappointed as the whole team, fall under the ax Caniggia of Argentina in Turin. Then he confirmed his relationship with the new owner of Fiorentina Mario Cecchi Gori, bringing him as the leader of the team by increasing the engagement net of 220 million per year to 3.6 billion lire. It seemed a clear transfer of ownership very positive from operations dedicated to selling the best pieces of Pontello of the star system to the billionaire movie producer. But the first of Cecchi Gori Fiorentina did not fulfill the expectations and after yet another disappointing season in 1992 the same Dunga was called into question. Vittorio Cecchi Gori, Mario's son, who took over the reins of the company, got tired of the game felt very lively and Dunga aside gracefully, preferring Effenberg and Brian Laudrup, enlightened interpreters Swedish European Championship of 1992. The third alien was Diego La Torre. For Dunga then there was more room. The Brazilian complained that the company pretended that he did not just play football, but also to report the discontent and tensions in the dressing room. Dunga refused to make a spy, was referred by the company to regulate, and fined, thanks to Attorney Caliendo, placed in Pescara where bunches of Galleon 23 appearances in 1992-93 and an inevitable relegation. But there were no winners or losers because the same team lily fell dramatically in Serie B with Abruzzo. The report ended with Florence so badly, but the value of the player, greatly underestimated, appeared strongly in subsequent years. After a season at Stuttgart in 1993-94 regained the jersey 'Auriverde' and played an outstanding graduating U.S. world champion as captain, kicking the fourth penalty yellow-gold in the final against Italy in Pasadena. He had the honor of raising the first to make sure the FIFA World Cup sporting immortality. After winning the National Championships was abandoned and began an exciting experience in the land of the Rising Sun, Japan, the Jubilo Iwata, where in 1997 he won the national title and was named best player of the tournament. The Japanese considered him a true hero of the ball.
The Brazilian took his defensive weakness in the national team returned and was again in America's Cup victory in 1997. In 1998 her then leaned to the French in Brazil World Cup final in Paris. In 1999 he pursued his dream to close his career in the team from where he left his football adventure: Internacional. In that season, things began badly in the standings and Dunga in a historic match against Palmeiras realized the goal that avoided relegation to the second division with his team. The high cost of his salary could not be supported by the company could terminate the contract the following season by paying a good-out of 435,000 Brazilian Real. Dunga, disappointed with the way in which he was dismissed, all monies donated to various charities. And the charitable projects of particular interest to work through financing and advertising of the poorest fringes of the Brazilian people. He became a technical adviser Jubilo Iwata and the occasional television football commentator. In her country, the epic of the '90s, with wins in return to follow the Brazilian national team, was called 'Dunga was' a demonstration of the recognition of the value and character of the man. Simply a great champion.
