Emotions

.

It will be tonight, tuesday, Roberto Carlos first match for Corinthians.

The original one celebrated, last year, his 50th career aniversary - 14 more than the Corinthians player has, of age. Otherwise, the popularity of both, is quite different: the famous son of Cachoeiro do Itapemirim, state of Espírito Santo is, still, a without-adversary idol among Brazilian women 50 years or older. The another one, born in Araras, state of São Paulo, is a reference in left-wing for football fans between 20 and 40 years around the globe. There's, otherwise, a lot of people that take part from both - post-modernity neologisms aside - tribes. Anyway, there are a lot of Corinthians fans that, if cried or smiled, felt emotions. There's nothing more appropriated.

The most sublime meeting moment of these two nations, the Corinthians fans and singer and composer followers, happened in the end of 2008, when the black-and-white team came back to the series A of the Brazilian Tournament. It was october 25th and, after the triumph, 2x0 against Ceará, in this Pacaembu Stadium, the club had confirmed, 6 rounds before the end (a record in the era of all-teams-against-all formula) its comeback to the main series. In the middle of the celebration, the sound of A Volta, a song by the "King" Roberto Carlos, gave the relief the fans waited for.
