00:03First, let me talk about the Vasco fan; she's a wonderful fan, she's always there.
00:08He supported us, he supported us throughout the entire campaign, in all the games he played at São Januário.
00:12It was almost at maximum capacity, because the social area ends up opening there, so the social area was full.
00:16That was the maximum capacity.
00:19It's always great to be playing at São Januário, because the fans support us so much and make us feel at home.
00:23There's really a big difference.
00:25Creating a hostile atmosphere for the opponent here, as we know always happens in our games.
00:29Games, inside São Januário, and fundamental support for us.
00:33Considering the championship, it's a championship that the boys are truly doing very well and have deserved it.
00:38What has been happening is that the numbers are very good.
00:43Now, with today's victory, we've qualified for the semifinals, if I'm not mistaken.
00:47This is only the second time in the club's history that it has qualified for the semi-finals, so
00:51Thus, we are managing to make our mark, our work, within history.
00:55from the club, especially these young players, and what he's been doing on the field.
00:59Of course, our main goal is to prepare them for the best possible professional environment.
01:04to serve the professional, so that they can get there in the best way, perform at the top level,
01:09which is the goal of our base.
01:11But while they're here, we have to compete, we have to compete in the best way possible.
01:14And we're doing that very well; we just need to appreciate their dedication.
01:18To value the commitment and the football he has been showing, which is at a very high level.
01:22And so, at the beginning of the year, Vasco unfortunately had a somewhat disappointing campaign in the Cup.
01:26from São Paulo and it has changed a lot, the team is completely different in terms of team cohesion, which
01:32What do you want to know? What has changed?
01:34You were under a lot of pressure at the beginning of the year when the board decided to back you.
01:38This continued presence is now paying off; it's been a very interesting campaign.
01:42In your opinion, what has changed, and where did Vasco find the improvement?
01:47Yeah, man, so, in football I have a very strong opinion, I think you need
01:52There's time for things to happen, especially in my role; it's not a job that...
01:56Things happen from one day to the next, so in football you really need
01:59of time.
02:01I am very grateful to the board for giving me this vote of confidence during this turbulent time.
02:06We really believed in the work we've been doing here at the base, not only
02:09I eat all of my commission.
02:10So, this is very fruitful; we are reaping the rewards today of what we did back then.
02:17planted.
02:18So, I think the situation with the Copinha was, unfortunately, a tournament where things...
02:22It didn't happen; we had very high expectations, given our level of work and the demands placed on us.
02:28It was at the same level as it is today, but unfortunately things in football sometimes...
02:33These things don't happen because we live in a profession that depends on results.
02:37And at that moment in the Copinha the results didn't come, but since my arrival at
02:41Vasco, I have very good numbers.
02:43So, since the Under-17 level I've reached the State Championship final, and the Under-20 final last year...
02:47State Championship and Rio Cup, this year we won the Rio Cup and the Brazilian Championship last year.
02:52also qualifying for the quarterfinals, after three years.
02:57So, if you're really going to look at the numbers, the numbers within Vasco are...
03:00Very good.
03:01And now, in this first semester after the Copinha (São Paulo Junior Cup), this Brazilian Championship campaign is consolidating.
03:09Furthermore, the work is paying off, and we are reaping the rewards of a long-term effort.
