Tele Santana foi o MAIOR VILÃO pelo FRACASSO em 1982? Dossiê completo!

In the history of the World Cup, Brazil has suffered two major disappointments when hosting the event: losing the 1950 final to Uruguay 2-1 at the Maracanã stadium, and being thrashed by Germany 7-1 in the 2014 semifinal at the Mineirão stadium. However, for many, the Brazilian national team's most painful defeat to date is a match that was worth a place in a second-round triangle and a spot in the 1982 World Cup semifinal: the infamous "Sarriá Tragedy." Forty-two years ago, on July 5, 1982, the Brazilian national team, led by coach Telê Santana, who enchanted everyone, was unexpectedly defeated 3-2 by a discredited Italy, who had not yet excited fans in the competition, at the Sarriá stadium in Barcelona. A team packed with stars like Zico, Sócrates, Toninho Cerezo, and Paulo Roberto Falcão—to name just a few—was eliminated prematurely, generating great commotion in Brazil and the rest of the world. The master Tele Santana was seen as a jinx, who didn't win any titles, and was branded Brazil's villain in the 1982 World Cup. But many forget the team's performance in that World Cup, which enchanted everyone. He fielded an attacking team that played the famous "artistic" football with a team of great players—Junior, Leandro, Falcão, Sócrates, Toninho Cerezo, Zico—all just beasts. Even so, Brazil lost the match against Italy 3-2, knocking the team out of the 1982 World Cup! It was from this moment on that Brazilian football saw a break between artistic football and the pragmatic style of football, which focused on results despite the number of stars the national team always produced during the 1980s and 1990s. Tele Santana, who was incredibly successful as a player for Fluminense and later as a coach, winning titles. Later, at Galo, he won the 1971 Brazilian Championship and then at Grêmio, also won the Campeonato Gaúcho after Inter had won eight consecutive titles. Tele Santana, who played for Palmeiras in 1979, caught everyone's attention and was called up to the national team after Brazil was eliminated from the 1979 Copa América under coach Claudio Coutinho, who was already under pressure for results and a third-place finish in the 1978 World Cup, in addition to not having included star striker Falcão, took over and delivered, boasting a very good generation, despite the coach's stubbornness in not calling up Reinaldo and Roberto Dinamite, two super forwards. It was a very fruitful period of experimentation from 1980 to 1982, with Zico's great prominence as the maestro of this new team. The two are always cited as the main villains of Brazil's failure in the 1982 World Cup, unfairly! __________________________________________ 00:00 - Opening 00:14 - Presentation of the theme 00:41 - Telecast before the Brazilian national team 05:26 - 1980 - arrival to the national team 08:21 - 1981 - many friendlies 10:21 - 1982 - World Cup year 12:54 - 1982 World Cup 19:26 - Post-1982 World Cup 20:05 - Closing 20:34 - BONUS #telesantana #selecaobrasileira #cupadomundo1982 #futebolretro
