A wonderful player

















He was born in May 21,1974 in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Nowadays he plays in Piacenza, an Italian team, and at the Brazilian national team too. His position as a player is “oposto”. He’s considered short for his position. He is 1,90 meters tall, but he is one of the best players of the world.

He has been considered an excellent player because he has been winning a lot of championships. In the Brazilian national time he won the World championship in 2002, The Worldwide League in 2001, 2003 and 2004 and the World Cup in 2003.

He is my sport’s idol because he is an example of talon and perseverance because he has faced a lot of difficult moments in his life. But with the help of his parents and friends he has became an excellent professional.
