RUDÁ: SHE JUST WANTED TO PLAY FOOTBALL

RUDÁ: SHE JUST WANTED TO PLAY FOOTBALL

RUDAH, INDIGENOUS NAME, WHICH THE FATHER PATAMU AND THE MOTHER JUMAMI GIVEN HER, IN HOMAGE, THE DIVITY OF LOVE, ORIGINATED FROM THE KARIPUNA TRIBES.

RUDÁ WAS BORN ON THE OIAPOQUE RIVER BRANCHES, A MUNICIPALITY IN THE STATE OF AMAPÁ, NORTHERN REGION OF THE PARENTS, WHICH IS A BORDER WITH FRENCH GUIANA.

A CITY WITH A HOT AND HUMID CLIMATE, THEY ARE SITUATED 500 km FROM AMAPÁ, HAVING OUR LADY OF GRAÇAS, SAINT OF MANY MIRACLES IN THE CITY, SAID THE OLDEST RESIDENTS.

RUDÁ WAS BORN BEAUTIFUL, INDIA WITH LONG HAIR, BLACK EYES, IN THE MORNING I CLIMBED INTO THE HIGHEST TREE IN THE FOREST AND STAYED IN TUNE WITH MOTHER NATURE, HER CHILDLIKE BEAUTY, NATURAL AND GENTLE.

WATCHING THE MOVEMENT OF THE WIND, BLOWING THE TREES THAT SLOWLY SWITCHED THEIR BRANCHES FROM SIDE TO SIDE, A CALM, FOLLOWED BY PEACE, INVADES HIS SOUL.

THE SONG OF THE BIRDS, THE SQUEEZE OF THE MONKEYS, IN AN OUT-OF-TUNED SYMPHONY ANNOUNCED THE ARRIVAL OF THE SUN, RUDÁ DIVED INTO THE OIAPOQUE RIVER, THE BOTO FISH, INTERRUPTED HIS HUNTING TO ADMIRATE IT.

ONE DAY, CROSSING THE RIVER, RETURNING FROM FISHING WITH HIS FATHER, AND WATCHING THE RIVER'S COURSE,

LEAVING THE WIND KISS HIS LITTLE FACE,RUDÁ SAW, IN A PAGE OF A NEWSPAPER THAT BOOTED IN THE WATER, A PHOTO OF A GIRL KICKING A SOCCER BALL.

THE IMAGE STAYED IN HER MIND, AS THE CANOE WENT AWAY, AND THE NEWSPAPER PAGE WAS WINNING THE CURRENTS OF THE OIAPOQUE RIVER.

WHEN HE REACHED TWELVE YEARS OF AGE, HIS PARENTS DECIDED TO LEAVE THE FOREST, TO LIVE WITH CIVILIZED MEN IN THE CITY, IT WAS THEN THAT THINGS GOT DIFFICULT.

BECAUSE IN THE FOREST, THEY DEPENDED ONLY ON THE MOTHER NATURE, WHICH GIVED THE HUNTING, FRUITS, FISH, VEGETABLES, AND EVEN NATURAL REMEDIES.

WHEN THEY STARTED LIVING WITH CIVILIZED MEN IN THE CITY OF OIAPOQUE, SHE DIDN'T LIKE IT VERY MUCH, THEY WERE DIFFERENT IN SEVERAL ASPECTS.

THEY WERE RUDE PEOPLE, FALSE LIARS, AND EVIL, SHE DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY WOKE UP IN THE MORNING, WALKING LEGUAGES, TOGETHER WITH HER MOTHER AND FATHER.

TO WORK ON A HUGE CORN AND SOYBEAN PLANTATION, LEAVING HOME WITH HEAVY STUFFED BACK, TO EARN SOME COINS, AND A BASIC BASKET THAT DID NOT EVEN HAVE JACARE MEAT, SHE THOUGHT.

ON AN EXHAUSTING WORKING DAY, HIS PARENTS ASKED RUDÁ TO GO HOME EARLIER, DUE TO THE HEAT IT WAS.

RUDÁ OBEYING THE PARENTS, PUT HIS HOSE ON HIS BACK, AND FURTHER CUTTING THE WAY, TO REACH HIS HOME FAST, FOLLOWED PLAYING WITH THE BIRDERS, ON THE CLAY ROAD.

ON THE WALK, HE PASSED NEXT TO A FOOTBALL FIELD, WHERE SEVERAL BOYS OF HIS AGE KICKED A LEATHER BALL.

RUDÁ WAS DELIGHTED, THE IMAGE OF THE GIRL KICKING THE BALL, RETURNED IN HIS MIND, AND THE WILL TO GIVE A KICK TOO, AND WAS STRONGER.

WITHOUT ASKING THE BOYS' LICENSE, HE ENTERED THE FIELD, AND WITH AN ABNORMAL SKILL, HE DRIBBLED ALL THE BOYS,

AND MADE A BEAUTIFUL GOAL WITH A STRONG KICK.

BUT AS A REWARD, HE TAKES A STRONG PUNCH, AND FALLS ON THE POWDERED FLOOR, WITH HIS NOSE BLEEDING, SO BECAUSE HE WANTED TO PLAY FOOTBALL.

RUDÁ GET UP WITHOUT ANY QUESTIONING, SIMPLY PUNCHED THE GUY WHO STRIKED HER, BEFORE THINGS WERE WORSE, A LORD BY NAME JOJO, SEPARATED THE FIGHT.

SAYING THAT SHE WAS AWESOME WITH THE RUDÁ GIRL'S FOOTBALL, UNTIL THEN NO ONE KNEW HER NAME, SHE INTRODUCED HIMSELF TO MR. JOJO, SAID IF HE COULD JOIN THE BOYS TO PLAY FOOTBALL.

MR. JOJO, ALREADY WITH HIS 60 YEARS OF AGE, WAS A FOOTBALL PLAYER
