Dunga , real name Carlos Caetano Bledorn Verri , also known as Carlos Dunga (born October 31, 1963 in Ijuí ), is a Brazilian soccer coach and was the captain of the Brazilian national soccer team in his previous career as a soccer player , which became world champion in 1994 and vice world champion in 1998 . He won several regional state championships with Internacional Porto Alegre and CR Vasco da Gama . From the late 1980s to the mid 1990s, Dunga played in Italy a . a. for AC Florence and in Germany for VfB Stuttgart .

As a coach, he won the Copa America 2007 and the Confederations Cup in 2009 with Brazil . At the Soccer World Cup 2010 Dunga was eliminated with the national team in the quarter-finals and thus missed the goal of winning the title, clearly, whereupon he resigned. From 2014 to 2016 he was the Seleção coach for the second time .

He got his nickname "Dunga" from his uncle after the dwarf Dunga, one of the seven dwarfs from the Portuguese version of the fairy tale Snow White by the Brothers Grimm . In Brazil he is also called "o alemão" (the German). He has Italian ancestors and a German grandmother.

Player career

society

Dunga began his football career as a defensive midfielder at Internacional Porto Alegre . With Internacional he won the state championship of Rio Grande do Sul from 1982 to 1984 three times in a row before moving to Corinthians São Paulo . He came to CR Vasco da Gama via FC Santos and in 1987 won the national championship of Rio de Janeiro with the team . In 1987 he moved to Italy to be promoted to Serie A , Pisa Calcio . After achieving relegation with Pisa, he joined Fiorentina the following year , for which he played until 1992 and moved into the UEFA Cup final in the 1989/90 season .

In the 1992/93 season he played for a year at Pescara Calcio before VfB Stuttgart committed the then 29-year-old Dunga in the summer of 1993 for four million marks from the Italian first division relegated. The Brazilian international was supposed to enable the Swabians to return to international business, but it did not succeed. After finishing seventh and twelve and 53 Bundesliga games, in which he scored seven goals for VfB, he moved to Júbilo Iwata in the Japanese J. League in the summer of 1995 for a fee of two million marks . With Júbilo Iwata, Dunga won his first and only national championship title in his career in 1997. From 1999 to 2000 he let his active career end with his parent club Internacional Porto Alegre in Brazil.

National team

His international career began in 1983 at the U20 World Cup in Mexico . With Dunga as captain, Brazil became world junior champions by beating Argentina 1-0 in the final in front of 110,000 spectators in the Aztec Stadium in Mexico City . A year later, Dunga won the silver medal at the Olympic Games in Los Angeles with the Brazilian Olympic selection . Then he was appointed to the Brazilian senior team. With the national team he won the Copa America in 1989 and took part in the 1990 World Cup in Italy, where he was seen as one of the main scapegoats after the knockout round of 16 against Argentina with his sober and result-oriented football at home .

When Dunga was initially no longer nominated for the Brazilian national team after leaving the World Cup in 1990, Carlos Alberto Parreira brought him back to the Seleção in the run-up to the 1994 World Cup . In the title fights in the USA he was the captain of the team that won the fourth World Cup for Brazil 24 years after their last triumph. In 1997 he won the Copa America for the second time with the Brazilian national team. A year later he played his third World Cup at the 1998 World Cup in France . At the side of his long-time companion Taffarel , Dunga moved into the final again. After a total of 91 international matches and six goals for Brazil, he ended his career in the Seleção with a 3-0 win in the final against hosts France .

Coaching career

Dunga became the coach of the Brazilian national team on July 24, 2006. He thus succeeded Carlos Alberto Parreira, who resigned after the disappointing performance of the Brazilian team at the 2006 World Cup - without any coaching experience . He made his debut as coach of the Seleção on August 16 in the friendly against Norway in Oslo , which ended in a 1-1 draw. In 2007, the Brazilian team defended the Copa America, won two years earlier . After a 6-1 quarter-final victory over Chile , the Seleção reached the final with a win on penalties against Uruguay . There the Brazilians prevailed 3-0 against arch-rivals Argentina . At the Olympic Games in Beijing in 2008 , the Argentines were able to get their revenge in the semi-finals and defeat the Brazilian Olympic team, which Dunga was in charge of, which included several senior international players, 3-0. For Brazil it was enough for the bronze medal.

As the winners of the Copa America, the Brazilian national team qualified for the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup , which was won 3-2 in the final against the United States . After the Seleção had relegated Portugal, which was originally a favorite, to second place in the preliminary round of the 2010 World Cup and defeated Chile in the round of 16, the Dungas team failed in the quarter-finals with a 2-1 defeat by the Netherlands . Immediately after the game, he resigned from the position of national coach, the separation was confirmed on July 4, 2010 by the Brazilian Football Association .

Dunga had pursued a new style in the national team towards a controlled, efficient game and thus a departure from the traditionally purely offensive style of play. Likewise, the way of playing, which was nice to look at in terms of football, but not always result-oriented, had taken a back seat. In addition, Dunga had also done without stars such as Ronaldo , Ronaldinho , Alexandre Pato and Adriano . This realignment met with great criticism from the Brazilian public.

From December 2012 to October 2013 he coached his former club Internacional Porto Alegre . He won his first club title in May 2013 with the national championship in Rio Grande do Sul (final 2-1 against Juventude ). In October of the same year, he was released after a series of defeats. At the end of July 2014, Dunga became the Seleção's coach for the second time, replacing Felipe Scolari . At the Copa America 2015 in Chile , Brazil won the group and were eliminated in the quarter-finals on penalties against Paraguay . In May 2015, he again took on responsibility for preparing the Olympic team , whose goal was to win the gold medal for the first time at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro . After leaving the group stage of the Copa América Centenario 2016 , he was sacked by the Brazilian Football Association. In the tournament in Rio, the eventually victorious team was looked after by Rogério Micale .
