The most crucial point was that Maxa never interfered with Coach Matrazzi's tactical arrangements; even when Matrazzi allowed him to speak, he would always say with a smile, "I think your arrangements are already fantastic, and there are even some aspects that I can't quite understand."
This earned Maxa Matrazzi's friendship.
Could it be that Maxa, the future star of the Portugal coaching industry who had led the Portugal U15 team to a double championship and was heavily relied upon by the former head coach Augustus, did not understand tactics?
That was absolutely impossible!
But he was content to serve under Matrazzi without the slightest desire to fight for fame or profit.
Not seeking fame or fishing for compliments, that is a true master!
Therefore, Matrazzi would discuss many things with Maxa, and occasionally Maxa would give him a few suggestions.
For instance, Matrazzi really wanted to bring Quaresma on board.
