LĂșcio The Brazilian Defense Icon
About
Lucimar Ferreira da Silva (born 8 May 1978), commonly known as LĂșcio, is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as a centre-back. A tall and physically strong defender who excelled in the air, LĂșcio was known for his long, surging, galloping runs on the ball, which earned him the nickname O Cavalo ("The Horse").
LĂșcio began his professional career in 1998 with Internacional. After three years in the club, he moved to Bayer Leverkusen, where he reached the 2002 UEFA Champions League final against Real Madrid of Spain. He scored a header in the final, which Real Madrid won with the score of 2–1. In 2004, he arrived at Bayern Munich, where he won three cups and three Bundesliga titles. Since coach Louis van Gaal did not have a place for him at Bayern, he decided to search for a new team. He moved to Inter Milan in the summer of 2009. He won the treble with Inter in 2010, helped them win the 2010 Champions League against his former club Bayern Munich.
With Brazil, LĂșcio has accumulated a number of significant accomplishments, winning the 2002 World Cup, 2005 Confederations Cup and 2009 Confederations Cup. After the retirement of KakĂĄ, he was the last active player of the 2002 winning team.
Club career
Early career
LĂșcio started playing football for his hometown club Planaltina as a forward. In 1997, now playing as a defender, he was loaned to GuarĂĄ, then current Campeonato Brasiliense champions, for their match against Internacional for 1997 Copa do Brasil. Despite a 0–7 home loss, he impressed the Porto Alegre club and was purchased.
Internacional
At Internacional, LĂșcio later became a starting centre-back and had his best year in 2000, receiving his first call-up to the Brazil national team and being awarded the Bola de Prata as one of the two best centre-backs of the 2000 Campeonato Brasileiro.
Bayer Leverkusen
In January 2001, he moved to Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen.Lucio though, starred as the best defender in Leverkusen, making them finish just behind Bayern in 2002. The following season was bittersweet for Leverkusen, as the club surrendered a five-point lead atop the Bundesliga by losing two of its last three matches while Borussia Dortmund swept ahead with three consecutive victories in the final matches to finish a point ahead of Leverkusen. They also experienced defeat in the 2002 DFB-Pokal Final, losing 4–2 to Schalke 04, and in the 2002 UEFA Champions League final against Real Madrid, in which LĂșcio cancelled out RaĂșl's eighth-minute goal just five minutes later with a header, only for Zinedine Zidane to give Real a 2–1 win with a sublime volley just before half-time. Despite the disappointing end to the season, LĂșcio's impressive individual displays drew the attention of several of Europe's top clubs. In July 2003, Roma made an official bid, but the deal fell through.
Bayern Munich
In 2004, LĂșcio joined Bayern Munich on a six-year contract, where he became a vital part of the team. Following Oliver Kahn's retirement in 2008, Dutchman Mark van Bommel was named club captain with LĂșcio as vice-captain. When Bayern were playing against Real Madrid in the Round of 16 in the 2006–07 Champions League, LĂșcio scored. The goal was in the 66th minute, while the score was 1–0 in favour of Bayern. The goal took Bayern through to the quarter-finals, where they lost to eventual champions Milan. In the 2008–09 DFB-Pokal, he scored in the quarter-finals against his former club, Bayer Leverkusen. Bayern were already down 3–0 when he scored, and even though Miroslav Klose scored again, LĂșcio's goal did not matter as Stefan KieĂling scored again to win it for Leverkusen 4–2.
Inter Milan
LĂșcio playing for Inter in 2009
On 16 July 2009, LĂșcio moved to Italian club Inter Milan, signing a three-year contract with the Serie A champions. He was given the number 6 shirt. He scored his first goal with Inter on 23 September 2009 against Napoli with a header from a corner kick. LĂșcio also scored an own goal in the UEFA Champions League in the group stages against Dynamo Kyiv, resulting in a draw. Throughout the season, both LĂșcio and his defensive partner Walter Samuel drew praise for their performances, and on 22 May, LĂșcio was in the Inter team that won the Champions League by defeating his former club Bayern Munich 2–0, to seal a historic treble and end a 45-year wait to be crowned European Champions. He was selected In the FIFA FIFPro World XI of 2010 For His Performances On 24 September 2011, LĂșcio made his 100th appearance in an Inter shirt, scoring the third of a 3–1 win at Bologna in Serie A matchday 5. On 29 June 2012, it was announced that LĂșcio would be leaving Inter following a mutual agreement to terminate the final two years of his contract.
Juventus
On 4 July 2012, LĂșcio signed a two-year contract with Serie A titleholders Juventus, adding him to the list of players to play for both Inter and Juventus. Although he was initially used as a starter in the club's three-man defence, featuring in Juventus's 4–2 victory over Napoli in the 2012 Supercoppa Italiana on 11 August, after struggling with injuries and producing some inconsistent performances, he was soon left out of the first-team in favour of the defensive trio of Giorgio Chiellini, Leonardo Bonucci and Andrea Barzagli. In total, he made only four appearances in all competitions during his next six months with the club: one in Serie A, two in the Champions League, and one in the Supercoppa Italiana. Due to this lack of playing time, LĂșcio left Juventus on 17 December 2012, after his contract was terminated by mutual consent.
SĂŁo Paulo
On 18 December 2012, one day after leaving Juventus, LĂșcio signed for a two-year contract with Brazilian side SĂŁo Paulo. After 12 years in Europe, he said that he needed to familiarize himself again with Brazil. He scored his first goal for SĂŁo Paulo against Botafogo on 7 April 2013.
In July 2013, after a change of coaches in club – Ney Franco was replaced for Paulo Autuori – LĂșcio was removed from team. The episode gained traction after the 1–0 loss against Internacional, in a Brazilian League match. LĂșcio did not accept Paulo Autuori's criticism, that the Colorado goal, scored by Leandro DamiĂŁo, would have been scored after a failure from former captain of Seleção Brasileira. This way, reporting an insubordination, Autuori preferred to take off LĂșcio from his staff.
After his removal, LĂșcio did not travel with the club to Germany to contest the 2013 Audi Cup. His presence at the friendly tournament was requested by his former club Bayern Munich, and without him SĂŁo Paulo earned €40,000 less than initially accorded. The German side understood the explanations of the directors of the Brazilian club about the insubordination issues, but insisted on SĂŁo Paulo's performance of contract.
Training apart from the main staff, LĂșcio has become a "problem" to the club. He did not accept playing offers from clubs of Middle East and Japan, preferring to stay in Brazil, and did not receive proposals from other Brazilian teams. The directors of Tricolor did not want to sign his rescission, claiming about the high value to do this, however LĂșcio was still earning a lucrative salary despite not playing. With defenders AntĂŽnio Carlos and Roger Carvalho arriving at the club, LĂșcio effectively lost his chance at playing again, prompting efforts from SĂŁo Paulo to transfer him to a European club before the transfer window closes; they were unsuccessful. In December 2013, after almost six months, LĂșcio broke the silence and spoke about his poor relationship with the club: "I felt humiliated. I thought "Oh, my god, what did I do to deserve this?"
Palmeiras
On 1 January 2014, LĂșcio broke his contract with SĂŁo Paulo (originally to last until December 2014) and signed with Tricolor's rivals Palmeiras. Following the departure of former team captain and centre-back Henrique, an idol for the club, LĂșcio will now play a major leadership role on the team's defensive group, alongside goalkeeper and current team captain Fernando Prass. Upon signing his contract, LĂșcio agreed to only earn a third of the salary he had in at SĂŁo Paulo, being further compensated through prizes based on his performance on the field.
FC Goa
On 7 June 2015, it was confirmed that LĂșcio had signed for FC Goa of the Indian Super League as their marquee player. He made 14 appearances in his first season, as FC Goa finished as runners-up of the league. The following season was a lot less successful, with just five appearances from LĂșcio and FC Goa finishing at the bottom of the table.
Later career
On 7 December 2017, LĂșcio returned to his home district in Brazil and signed for Gama, captaining the club during the 2018 Campeonato Brasiliense. On 16 April 2018, LĂșcio joined rivals Brasiliense.
LĂșcio announced his retirement as a professional footballer on 29 January 2020.
International career
LĂșcio and Brazilian President Lula in 2009
2000 Olympics
At junior level, he played for Brazil in the football tournament in the 2000 Olympics.
2002 World Cup
In the 2002 FIFA World Cup quarter-final match against England, LĂșcio made a mistake that allowed Michael Owen to score the opening goal. Luiz Felipe Scolari defended him, stating that he had made no other mistakes. In the final against Germany, LĂșcio bore the full brunt of a free-kick, but managed to stay on his feet to complete playing all 630 minutes of the tournament. He was one of four players to do so along with goalkeeper Marcos, right-back captain Cafu, and midfielder Gilberto Silva.
2006 World Cup
In the 2006 World Cup, LĂșcio set a FIFA-record by playing 386 consecutive minutes without committing a foul, a streak which was finally broken in Brazil's 1–0 quarter-final loss to France.
In August 2006, LĂșcio was appointed as captain by Brazil manager Dunga.
2009 Confederations Cup
LĂșcio playing for Brazil in 2011
LĂșcio's next international tournament was 2009 Confederations Cup. On 28 June 2009, the Brazilian captain scored the game-winning goal in the 84th minute for Brazil in the final of the Confederations Cup against the United States. LĂșcio converted on a header from an Elano corner-kick, which beat American goalkeeper Tim Howard.
2010 World Cup
The 2010 World Cup was LĂșcio's third World Cup. He played in the Seleção's first match against North Korea on 15 June 2010, leading his team to a narrow 2–1 win. In the tournament, he partnered Juan in defence. In Group E, Brazil won against the Ivory Coast and played a 0–0 draw against Portugal, which was enough to lead Brazil to the knockout stage. Chile was beaten by Brazil, 3–0, and the Seleção made it to the quarter-finals. There Brazil faced the Netherlands, where Wesley Sneijder scored twice for Netherlands to eliminate Brazil after a 2–1 scoreline.
After World Cup 2010
After head coach Dunga was sacked, the Brazil Football Confederation hired Mano Menezes as the side's new head coach. Menezes also had faith in the experienced LĂșcio, who kept his starting centre-back role in the team. Even though LĂșcio kept his place, his centreback partner Juan was dropped from the Brazilian squad, and Thiago Silva was LĂșcio's new partner.
On 4 June 2011, LĂșcio played his 100th game for Brazil, which consists of 98 official caps and two unofficial caps in friendly matches against Spanish club Sevilla in 2005 and against Swiss club Luzern in 2006.
2011 Copa América
LĂșcio was also named in Brazil's squad for 2011 Copa AmĂ©rica. Brazil barely survived the group stage and in the quarter-finals the team faced Paraguay, which eliminated Brazil after a penalty shootout.
Towards the end of 2011, Menezes dropped LĂșcio from the Brazil's squad, and Robinho became the new team captain. LĂșcio made his last appearance for Brazil in September 2011.
Style of play
Regarded as one of the best defenders of his generation, LĂșcio was a tall, large, tenacious, and physically strong defender, who excelled in the air, and was known for his heavy marking of opponents, as well as his hard-tackling style of play and leadership; he was also highly regarded for his positioning, ability to read the game and his adeptness at winning back possession in one on one situations. Gifted with good technical skills, and excellent distribution, although he was usually deployed as a centre-back, he was also used as a defensive midfielder, where he demonstrated his confidence in possession, and ability to play the ball out of defence. Although he was primarily known for his defensive skill and consistency, his pace, stamina and dribbling ability frequently enabled him to get forward into good attacking positions, with his trademark long, surging, galloping runs on the ball, which earned him the nickname O Cavalo ("The Horse", in Portuguese); these attributes, along with his powerful striking ability from distance and on set-pieces with his right foot, made him an additional offensive threat.
Personal life
LĂșcio is married to Dione, with whom he has three children: Victoria, JoĂŁo VĂtor, and Valentinna. He is an Evangelical Christian, and frequently talks about the way his faith sustains his life in professional football.
