Usually, it's the quality of the players which decides the match, not having the coach telling you whether it's the right moment to take on the defender or not.
It is marvellous for us all. I have said that after all I have suffered, every time I walk into a ground to play is a victory for me, so this is just wonderful.
Every time I went away I was deceiving my mum. I'd tell her I was going to school but I'd be out on the street playing football. I always had a ball on my feet.
I have ambitions I want to fulfil, to enjoy more success with Brazil.
