In the 2006 World Cup defeat, Brazilian Football Association Chairman Teixeira used a serious injury to push Dunga to the position of Brazilian head coach. No one expected that this questionable iron man not only sat firmly in the "Crater", but also won the World Cup three rounds in advance! If Dunga could lead the team to win the championship like Scolari in 2002, he would also become the first Brazilian head coach in Brazil who had never obtained a coaching certificate, had no past coaching experience, and won the World Cup for the first time he led the team to participate in the World Cup. Moreover, he would also become another great footballer who won the World Cup as a player and a coach after Zagallo and Bekenbauer.

After defeating Germany, changing coaches was the general trend, and Brazil has achieved success and outstanding coaches. From the beginning to the end, no one would have thought that Dunga and Teixeira's decision would be in an uproar in Brazil. Fortunately, Dunga's start was quite good. Not only did he win 5 wins and 1 draw in several friendly matches in 2006, he also defeated his old rival Argentina 3-0 in London!

In October 2007, the South American qualifiers for the South African World Cup kicked off, and Dunga participated in the game as the head coach for the first time. At the beginning, the Brazilian team played in moderation and only scored 8 points in the first four games. However, this year Dunga won Luis Fabiano, the excellent striker who had already embarked on the forgotten path at that time.

At home against Uruguay, Sevilla scorer started his first start for Dunga and Brazil, scoring twice, helping Brazil reverse 2-1, and also allowed Dunga to escape the dismissal. Since then, Fabiano has gained Dunga's trust and has continuously established his position as the main striker of Samba with goals.

Unfortunately, the next 2008 became a disaster year for Dunga. Brazil even faced the danger of not being able to go out of the line or playing the playoffs. In the friendly match, Brazil surrendered 0-2 to Venezuela, which had never lost before. It lost 0-2 to Paraguay away in the qualifiers, and 0-0 against Argentina, Bolivia and Colombia at home, which angered Brazilian fans. Fortunately, Brazil's away record was pretty good, and it also avoided falling too much in the standings. At the Beijing Olympics, Dunga's leading Brazilian Olympics also played badly, not winning the planned gold medal in football, and also shamelessly lost 0-3 to Argentina in the semi-finals. If it weren't for the 6-2 victory over Portugal at the end of the year, Dunga would definitely not have been able to hold on in 2009.

As the team gradually took shape and the running-in became smoother, Dunga and Brazil also ushered in a recovery moment. In addition to winning the Federation Cup this year, Brazil also achieved 5 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in the World Cup qualifiers, especially slaughtering Uruguay 4-0 away, reversing the then leader Paraguay 2-1 at home and defeating Argentina 3-1 away.

Another great achievement of Dunga as the coach of Brazil was that he completed the replacement of new and old in more than three years and prepared for the South African World Cup. After 2006, reorganizing the Samba Legion was the top priority. Although it was controversial when he took office, Dunga had no scruples about Pereira's old Brazilian team. If the old Cafu and Carlos (both of them said they would no longer play for the national team after the German World Cup) could not reflect Dunga's courage, then abandoning Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, he gave Kaka, who could not be given up at the beginning of his tenure and could only reuse, and let the "core" sit on the bench for several games, which proved Dunga's courage and courage.

After coaching for more than three years, Dunga has never summoned Ronaldo; Dunga should not bring "alien" to the South African World Cup, although Fat Ronaldo has repeatedly expressed his hope to achieve the goal of enlisting through weight loss. Considering that Ronaldo plays in Brazil, there will be no less voices to call for him next year, Dunga never surrenders to public opinion. Compared to Scolari abandoning Romario, Dunga faces much less pressure this time; but before the South Korean and Japanese World Cup, no one believed that Brazil would win the championship, and today's Brazilian team has long been regarded as a hot topic. Of course, these public opinions have been created by Dunga with his efforts and achievements over the past few years, and he can also say "no" to Ronaldo!

However, in order to find the "Ronaldo" in the "post-Ronaldo era", Dunga went through a lot of trouble and took a long detour. At the beginning of his tenure, Dunga, who was eager to bring blood to the Brazilian team, favored his fellow countrymen in Nanda Hezhou, but neither Carvalho nor Sobis could meet Dunga's expectations; using Love and Alfonso Alves also had the taste of being rushing to seek medical treatment. Even the home use of Fabiano to Uruguay in November 2007 was a random collision - Dunga's Brazilian team was always weak at the time, and the former Sao Paulo player Fabiano was very familiar with the game stadium, so Dunga gave him the first starting opportunity...

Ronaldinho has been sluggish after the German World Cup, but Dunga expressed support for the former World Footballer for a long time. Kaka was injured in 2008, and Dunga also gave Ronaldinho enough opportunities in the Olympics and qualifiers. However, the former World Footballer himself was not good and was in a sluggish state. Therefore, after Kaka returned, Dunga never gave Ronaldinho a chance. Ronaldinho can only play half-court in AC Milan, but Dunga still encourages him from time to time, hoping that his form will recover. The reason is that Kaka's midfield scheduling ability is not strong. If Ronaldinho can really return to courage, he should be able to play a super substitute in the South African World Cup.

Who said Dunga could not use people? Who said Dunga was too conservative? In 2009, Dunga used several new players such as Melo, Ramirez, Neilmar, Andre Santos, Miranda and Thiago Silva, and fully utilized the offensive advantage of substitute right-back Alves. Dunga seemed to have a bit of a magical power of gold. At least the few new players he valued this year took advantage of the opportunity and performed well. Especially the midfielder Melo, who started in the first call against Italy, determined the main midfielder position in one fell swoop. Neilmar also performed outstandingly. He scored 7 goals in 8 games in 2009, and almost got a ticket to South Africa in just a few months. These new players have certain strength, but Dunga's knowledge of people, being kind and polite.

After more than three years, Dunga finally completed the transformation of the Samba Legion and built the team into the "world's best defense and counter-team" highly praised by the legendary Toston. Dunga's Brazilian team sometimes doesn't play beautifully, but is very efficient. During the game, he can withstand the opponent's offensive pressure for a long time, and then kill the enemy with impeccable defensive counterattack. In the 2006 World Cup in Germany, Pereira's Brazilian team seemed strong, but was ruined by complacency and arrogantness.

Jia's behavior is completely different from Pereira: from the head coach and number one star Kaka to ordinary players, everyone is very low-key. And contrary to Ronaldo and Ronaldinho basically did not participate in defense, Dunga's Brazilian team not only competed for the first place in offense, but also spared no effort in defense. Brazilian players themselves have extremely high technical and tactical qualities, and they are supplemented by Dunga's iron fist to govern the army, adding to the tenacity and bloodiness of the Gojo people. Such a team is not regarded as one of the favorites to win the championship in South Africa!

However, Dunga's Brazilian team also has weaknesses. The "world's best defense team" is not the "world's best team". The team's biggest weakness is breaking intensive defense. This South American qualifier is the better away than home games. It is proof that Brazil's away results were better than home games in this South American qualifier: in total, Brazil actually won 4 "0-0". On the contrary, in the away game, Brazil won several big scores, including the first time defeating Chile in Santiago in 18 years, the first home game in Argentina after 14 years, and the victory at the Uruguayan Fudi Memorial Stadium 33 years later. Home worms and away dragons, which shows that facing the opponent's shrinking backcourt defense, there are not too many offensive methods for the "world's best defense team" to defend.

Of course, Dunga knew about the Brazilian team's problem, and he had been trying to solve it. On the one hand, the trial of Nielmar was to give a reminder to the main player Robinho, and on the other hand, it was also to enrich the Brazilian team's offensive routines. Before leaving Brazil to participate in the World Cup draw ceremony, Dunga was interviewed and said that Robinho of the South African World Cup must be the main player; but once Manchester City striker performs poorly, or Brazil faces offensive difficulties, it is not ruled out that Neilmar is straightened by the fire. Fast speed, good sense of grabbing points, and heading. Although his fame is not as good as Robinho, Nielmar is more comprehensive than Manchester City striker and more targeted and aggressive in the offense - Dunga knows this.

As for the problem of not being rich in offensive methods, even if you can't think of a comprehensive and systematic solution, Dunga doesn't have to worry, because all the Brazilian players at his hand are still very good and difficult to stop. Fabiano, Kaca and Robinho can score goals in the frontcourt offensive trident; Elano in the midfield can shoot long shots, Ramirez will score, and Melo and Gilberto Silva also know how to kick the ball into the opponent's goal; Macon and Alves have super assist capabilities, and even central defenders Lucio and Juan can occasionally show their strength. Scoring goals is not a problem for Brazil, or compared to other teams, the Brazilian team's offense is actually much less difficult.

In the South Africa World Cup group draw, Brazil was assigned to a relatively difficult group to play. Kaka even defined the same group as North Korea, Côte d'Ivoire and Portugal as "death". Dunga also believes that the G group is more difficult, but he also said that teams aiming to win the championship should not choose their opponents, and qualifying in the group is only an obligation. Moreover, compared with the 2006 German World Cup, the difficulty of Brazil's winning in South Africa is actually smaller.

Now the Brazilian team has entered the top 8. Looking back on the journey from the group stage, I believe that I have not doubted the strong strength of the Brazilian team at this moment. The world's number one defensive and counter-attack team seems to be gradually moving towards the world's best team. Kaka, Luis Fabiano and others have also proved their value in various games.

When Brazil is playing against Denmark, I believe that as long as the fans who know a little bit of the ball will understand very clearly, who is strong and who is weak, Brazil cannot enter the semi-finals. Oh my God, this is not a match held on April Fools' Day. Of course, some fans always firmly believe that the Denmark team with Qin Tian is like the fairy tale written by Andersen, which will always give you a fatal blow when you unexpectedly.

Not to mention the distance, in the first game of the group stage, who would have thought that the powerful Dutch Legion would lose at the foot of the Pirates and eventually compete for the top 8 as the second in the group, so I borrowed a slogan: Everything is possible!
Chapter completed!
