From South Van to South Africa

In '98, he skipped school to watch World Cup on TV. Now Portugal goalie is part of it

Brenda Fernandes remembers the 1998 World Cup when she and husband Tony let their son Daniel skip some Grade 9 classes at Killarney Secondary School so he could stay home and watch his two favourite teams, Portugal and Brazil.

Now, 12 years later, it might well be Brenda and Tony who'll be sneaking away to find a television and get a peek at the world's biggest sporting event.

Daniel will be smack bang in the middle of things when the action starts Friday in South Africa.

Now 26 and a towering 6-foot-5, the Edmonton-born south Vancouver product is one of three goalkeepers with the Portuguese World Cup side, a team that's ranked No. 3 in the world by FIFA.

Fernandes, who played this season with Bochum in Germany's Bundesliga and Iraklis in the Greek Super League, was named to the Portuguese squad last month by head coach Carlos Queiroz. He was chosen ahead of Joaquim Quim, the goalkeeper with Benfica, and Sporting Lisbon's net-minder Rui Patricio.

"It's something special, something everybody dreams about," Fernandes said Friday by phone from the team's training base near Lisbon. The team flew to South Africa on Saturday.

"It's like I always wanted it to be when I was a kid. It was not a dream, it was really a goal. I worked hard to be part of a team like this. It wasn't a fluke. It was just a matter of determination and concentration and will," said Fernandes, who was dubbed gigante des conhecida -- the giant unknown -- by a Portuguese magazine when he made his international debut three years ago in a friendly against Kuwait.

Having a World Cup goalie -- a gigante des conhecida -- for a son is a thrill for Port Alberni-born Brenda and Tony, who was born in Porto and moved to Canada in 1971 when he was 18.

"It's been his dream since he was 13," his mom said this week. "He always said that he's going to get there and now here he is.

"I just said to him a while ago, 'Do you remember that 12 years ago I let you skip school from Killarney?' He and his friends, they all pulled the chairs in and they were rooting for Brazil and he said, 'One of these days, I'm going to be there.' He was saying, 'You wait and see.' That's so vivid in my mind."

"Of course it is an amazing thing," said Tony, who'll be flying to Portugal to meet with his son after the tournament.

"I'm very proud. Of all the Portuguese immigrants in all the world I'm the first one to have his son make the Portuguese national team. So that's big right there. Of course I'm proud."

Both parents gushed about their son's determination.

"This would never have happened if my son had not had the work ethic that he does," said Brenda. "It doesn't matter who believed in him, he believed in himself. It was work, work, work."

Daniel Fernandes's journey from the soccer fields of east and south Vancouver to a goaltending job with Portugal's World Cup team was not easy. There have been plenty of potholes.

The journey started in 2000 on a family visit to dad's hometown. As mom tells it, the Porto club was holding open tryouts and Daniel told his dad he wanted a shot.

Daniel impressed and the Portuguese side offered a contract.

"Tony went there and said, 'I have a kid here who wants to try out,'" Brenda Fernandes said. "They said 'whatever.' But he was a big kid and they let him train. He did really well and within two hours they had a contract for him. He had three weeks to decide.

"When he said he was going to try out I didn't think much about it. Then when he got picked I thought 'oh my God.' And then my life fell apart," she laughed.

Young Daniel left home in 2000, spent the 2000-01-02 seasons with Porto and then spent the 2002-03 season with Celta de Vigo in Spain. Disappointed with the Spanish experience, he moved to Germany and, in the summer of 2002, he came home frustrated.

That's when he hooked up with Dino Anastopulos, a Vancouver scout, coach and agent who had connections in Greece. Anastopulos got Fernandes a contract with Paok, a team in Greece's Super League. Fernandes excelled there from 2003 to 2008 when he was transferred for 1.2 million euros ($1.5 million Cdn) to Bochum of the Bundesliga.

Fernandes, who had played for Canada's U-20 team, was offered a chance to obtain Portuguese citizenship so he could play for Portugal. Greece also came calling as did former Canadian national team coach Frank Yallop.

Fernandes chose Portugal. In May 2007 he made his debut with Portugal's national team in a friendly against Kuwait.

"The first time I kinda pinched myself," he said of finding himself on a field with Cristiano Ronaldo and the rest of Portugal's star-studded lineup. "I had to pinch myself but now it's reality.

"I'm here because of Dino," Fernandes said of his success. "He

I would love to be a World Cup winner ... I want to win it and bring it back home to Vancouver

watches my back and he has a good eye for what's happening. He's taken care of a lot of kids from Vancouver and especially me. "

Anastopulos had to watch Fernandes's back this season. Fernandes wasn't getting playing time with Bochum. Anastopulos worked out a loan to Iraklis of the Greek Super League. Fernandes excelled there, saving the team from relegation and catching the eye of Queiroz.

"This year wasn't always so positive for me," said Fernandes when asked if he was surprised to be named to the Portuguese side.

"I knew I had the capability to go higher in my career. I went to Greece and saved the club from going to relegation. I wasn't waiting for it (selection) to happen but I knew I could be a part of it so I kept my hopes up.

"Dino saw the future -- that I could go to Greece and do well. He has a special eye. I call him the special one. He was my coach in Vancouver and I still listen to him."

Fernandes is still signed with Bochum. But Anastopulos said he's been talking with Panathinaikos and Olympiakos, Greece's two top teams and with two teams in the English Premiership.

But for the next month Fernandes will be concentrating on one thing -- being one of Portugal's two backup goalies. And if he's needed he'll be ready.

"I won't be starting but if anything happens I'm well prepared to go into the net," said Fernandes. "I'm just working hard. I'm a positive person and I'll give energy to the team."

On Friday Fernandes fondly recalled those days watching World Cup in the family home.

"I had a group of European friends from the east side and we always used to gather in my house, about 10 guys and we were making so much noise," Fernandes said. "We'd be watching it and making lots of noise. I had it in my mind and they'd say 'you're crazy.' Now it's my job.

"I would love to be a World Cup winner. We'll give it all our best and we're a great team. We're not the favourites but there's no real favourites in football."

And if the Portuguese should win ... well, it could get pretty noisy in some houses in south Vancouver.

"I don't know what would happen," he said with a laugh. "But I want to bring the Cup home. I want to win it and bring it back home to Vancouver."

I just heard a lot of the places along commerical will open at 4am to show the games. Breakfast with a pint. Also, earlier on the news, it showed Alpine club will open at 4am, in fact, they will be showing every single game in the world cup.

[orange7]

I think most ppl would wake up or stay up all night to watch it at home.



hmm.. does anyone know if waves coffee (more specifically the one on commercial) will be showing it at 4am?

:haha:

[vafanculo]

Every country but 3 (Philippines being one of them) has a soccer team. But only 32 qualify for

Lol I read a while ago that in SA they have those buzzing things and they will be annoying. Problem is in early time games they put me to sleep.

And African teams, although they may not have skills or team chemistry like other teams, they are dangerous cause they are super fast and always manage breaks.

oh god those horns, that combined with the English announcers accent where half of what he says can barely be understood and I might start watching with this shit on mute and the radio on. Yes I know they want the "crowd noise" to give the broadcast a good feel but when it's just that constant buzzing there's no bloody point.

Also go England, and go Spain!

I prefer the ESPN feed over the CBC feed because the HD and audio quality on ESPN was better. And I agre, the horns are beyond annoying. Fifa should ban them or only allow the fans to blow them if teams score.

1-0 argentina wins

7 SOGs vs 1... scoreline should've been much larger had the keeper not been standing on his head. A bigger Argentinean victory would've helped Korea, considering Argentina is probably a sure bet to go through while Korea might need to beat Nigerians on GD.

LOL GREEN FTMFL

[Brianrietta]

1-1, wow. Green sure wishes he could have that goal back. Afterwards they showed the horrified look on Beckham's face, pretty much summed up the English reaction.

And regarding the vuvuzelas, if you seriously need to be able to hear the boos and cheers of the crowd to know whether something exciting just happened, football just isn't for you. I'm sure as hell not advocating using them in club play, but I don't think it detracts anything at all from the TV watching experience in a multinational contest like the World Cup.

[q0192837465]

England got owned. That was such a bad goal. But can you blame it on the ball? Many players say the ball flies all over the place.

[VSBB6]

Can't imagine how the english ppl would react if they loses this game, Green shouldn't have lose that one.

[The Hype]

England got owned. That was such a bad goal. But can you blame it on the ball? Many players say the ball flies all over the place.

No he just didn't save it properly, in my opinion anyway. Instead of blocking it with his hands like he did and thinking it would deflect away, he should have gone to scoop it up. I play goalkeeper too, and that's what I would have done, or tried to do. When the players talk about the ball flying all over the place, they mean when it's airborne. They've been saying it dips and takes wierd swerves when struck. I don't know how much I buy into that because weren't they saying that about the Teamgeist in '06? And now you don't hear about it.

David Beckham has an amazing face. It can do things most faces only dream of. But like any finely calibrated machine — a racehorse, say, or the Battlestar Galactica — it can run into disastrous problems when little things start to go wrong. For instance, when it's watching its beloved England team limp to a 1-1 draw against the underdog Americans. Herewith, a timeline of the breakdown, with field notes.

http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/ept_sports_sow_experts__7/ept_sports_sow_experts-359294864-1276435215.jpg?ymP8mSDDGQJkMgis

It all started so promisingly for David Beckham's face. His hair was combed into a regulation fauxmpadour, his cheeks were precisely withdrawn, and his FA-issued three-piece suit with hacking pockets and special bicolor England breast-patch neatly set off his Brand Beckham three-days' stubble. He was light on his feet. He was ready for anything his job as unofficial team ambassador with no designated coaching duties could throw at him. Dude could have been a wax statue of himself.

http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/ept_sports_sow_experts__7/ept_sports_sow_experts-823272924-1276435322.jpg?ym69mSDD_ypnw8VK

Here DB is joking with Rio Ferdinand. They're relaxed, just two injury-stricken ex-England captains telling tales and blissing on the times. They're happy. Rio's wind pants are ruffling gently in the light South African breeze. For one of these men, it's all about to go horribly, horribly wrong.

http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/ept_sports_sow_experts__7/ept_sports_sow_experts-212238327-1276435403.jpg?ymL_mSDDVH_mSZFf

Dempsey shoots. Green loses the ball. No joy in Mudville. Beckham’s eyebrow strikes an invisible gong.

"You think you can hurt me, but you can't hurt me, but you have hurt me. This isn't possible. My … my minions will be arriving at any moment. Don't think this is over, Mr. Bond."

Existential despair arrives. The hard, lined face of a man who's spent countless hours riding fences and driving herds of cattle contemplates the arrival of civilization and the end of the true West. Beckham's stubble — only his stubble — looks drunk.

http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/ept_sports_sow_experts__7/ept_sports_sow_experts-560668972-1276435581.jpg?ym9BnSDDf2ESbRwB

Total breakdown. Beckham's hair is like a line of twisted, agonized hands reaching up to the heavens, pleading for divine aid. His tie knot looks defeated. Long winter nights ahead, nights of privation and anguish, wondering how he'll keep the wolf from the door, how a man lives in this world, what Brooklyn and Romeo will eat.

[StylinRed]

there's no way they're going to ban a south african instrument that all the south african fans are using @ the south african world cup the political shit storm will totally mar the games


Player Quotes against Vuvuzelas

France captain Patrice Evra said the wall of noise was a factor in his side's poor display in their goalless draw with Uruguay.

All the latest stories, videos & pictures on the 2010 World Cup

"We can't sleep at night because of the vuvuzelas. People start playing them from 6am. We can't hear one another out on the pitch because of them," said the Manchester United star.

Portugal and Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo admitted the volume made it difficult on the pitch to concentrate, while Argentina playmaker and World Player of the Year Lionel Messi was quoted as saying it made him feel like he was deaf.

:lol @ France

Asked if a ban was an option, World Cup organising committee chief Danny Jordaan said: "If there are grounds to do so, yes", adding that he preferred singing.

But a spokesman for the committee later played down Mr Jordaan's remarks and said the horns were "here to stay".

superstore... i knew it

As stated earlier. Loblaws stores in Ontario carry them. I called Coca Cola toll free number and the person who answered the call was in Atlanta or some other Southern American city. She told me to call back tomorrow. She would be able to find out then where, if any, the nearest retailer that carries the orb shaped bottles is. It's all up to the local bottler, apparently. I bet when I call tomorrow, they'll be like "Sorry, we can't do that."

I'm hoping choda comes through and finds out something.


choda, dude, we're counting on you!

Maybe I need to be more patient. Two months from now, we'll see them on the shelves of Walmart for 50 cents each. :haha::haha::haha:

[TRDood]

As stated earlier. Loblaws stores in Ontario carry them. I called Coca Cola toll free number and the person who answered the call was in Atlanta or some other Southern American city. She told me to call back tomorrow. She would be able to find out then where, if any, the nearest retailer that carries the orb shaped bottles is. It's all up to the local bottler, apparently. I bet when I call tomorrow, they'll be like "Sorry, we can't do that."

I'm hoping choda comes through and finds out something.

This is 4000km away air delivery. ;)
Think about it, you can flip it for CL! hahaha
