FINAL COMMENTS

Freddy made an excellent tournament, but let escape the trophy when he was almost in his hands through a stupid Red Card, and all was decided for lucky on the penalties. And we all know that who don't score, received a goal. More lucky on the next time.

Bernardo aside played very well, don't played all his potencial like at SWOS CUP 2002 because lost of important players because his insistence and keep them in field aside they are injuried, what keep them away until the end of the tournament. maybe he could got more points or gone far more.

Daniel lost more two decisions in the last time aside had again lucky in his way. Now are 5 prizes consecutives that he lost. Are 2 Bronze Medals, 2 Revelation Medals and the Second Division Tournament. Let's go see if he stop to be vice on the next time. : )

Daniel, Freddy, Leo & Bernardo Ricardo came without any hope by the friends on until for himself, almost don't played because was thinking that will not have any chance with the others. But put out Rodrigo IRB soon as the Tournament started and after had lucky and got Daniel on the next 2 phases and on the Revelation Medal Match, winning 2 times against him and receiving the Revelation Medal and reaching the 5th place of the Tournament. Congratulation! : )

Raphael start well but don't had lucky and got just Freddy on the Quarters Of Final what made he went out of the Tournament. But if he don't went so scared, maybe he could give more trouble and who knows until reach the semi-finals. On the next time need to believe more in himself and fight until the end and not quit when received the first goal.

Luiz Magno that made a great SWOS CUP 2002, can't repeat the same play. But had unlucky only got strong teams, and aside that still got 2 difficult draws and reach the finals.

Junior is now a lot better and finally learned to shot penalties. Knows how to play back with more inteligence and aside only playing against champion's teams, got a good play losing for a little difference and reach the Quarter of Final for the first time after few years trying. Keep training!

Felipe, Rodrigo IRB, Luiz Magno & Raphael Felipe that were doing good plays, this time had unlucky and got only Leo on the first phase. But aside that played hard and made the possible to resist and played better than on the last tournaments aside this time don't cross the first phase. But still need to get better a lot, mainly in the attack.

Luiz Alexandre is better, is passing more the ball and play with more head. Had unlucky to play against Freddy on the first phase and don't had what to do. But also needs to training more if want keep the fight for the Revelation Medal.

Rodrigo IRB felt difficult to play against real teams, and nothing made right, and without one player the things turns a lot worst. But got a point playing for the first time in SWOS Brasil and in a SWOS OPEN was a good result to a novice. Keep learning.
