The story of this declaration of love has been told dozens of times by its author, the football commentator and former Casagrande player, but she remains sweeping.
Ricardo Corrêa and Sergio Xavier Filho, directors of the documentary “Placar-The Militant Magazine”, in theaters in theaters of several capitals in Brazil, listened to it once again when they interviewed Casão to the doc.
The theme was mainly Corinthian democracy, which is also fundamental in the history of the score, but both understood at the same time, in hot, who would have to mess with the script, because they had just recorded something they just could not give up. Gold on blue.
Casão had already spoken on the Sportv channel, live, to Socrates himself, on a perfectly ordinary day of October 2011. They were again reunited there after a long period of distancing. It was, he would know later, practically the last chance: seven weeks later, the doctor would die, overthrown by alcoholism.
Casão would again say that he loved Socrates in numerous interviews and texts of his own fist that has published since then. Moreover, along with journalist partner Gilvan Ribeiro, in 2016 he wrote the book “Socrates & Casagrande – A Love Story” (Globolivros), in which, as Gilvan explains, “Supplies the gap” created for not having time to “strengthen the relationship” with Magrão since the declaration of love in SporTV.
In the retrograde and chauvinistic environment of Brazilian football, even a fraternal declaration of love may sound crossed. But it would not soon be a subject as a Casagrande that would be contained by calculation or conservatism, especially after beating the post as a result of drug abuse, and after a very long hospitalization, at first involuntary, but that the book of chemical dependence.
Therapy has also helped him say I love you, and today he is prodigal in the statement, suggesting to all the interlocutors to do so. He has said that he did not declare his mother, so fundamental in her life. With Socrates, it finally got it.
Back at Doc, Casagrande is urged to comment on a photo in which he is holding hands with Magrão, on the Morumbi Gramado, at the celebration of the 1982 Paulista Title, against Sao Paulo.
“This picture here, right away, already shows the size of the affection that had for each other. And today I know, I know for a long time, that in reality we were in love, we were a couple […]we played well because we loved each other, we went out to drink together because we loved each other, we exchanged an idea because we loved each other. “
The way Corrêa and Serginho gave a “bypass” in the original plan and inserted the statement in the movie was ingenious.
They opened a new chapter in the narrative, displaying in the documentary historical photos of the score, and this image, from the passionate alvinegros hand in hand, by JB Scalco, was shaped and went to posterity as the very famous heart of Pelé under the canary shirt, by Luiz Paulo Machado, one more among many others he gave life-that perhaps more precisely, they also gave life to the score.
