After a home draw with Urawa Red Diamonds, Kawasaki defended his J1 league title four rounds in advance, while under the baton coach Oni Muda, there was an old acquaintance of Chinese fans, Brazilian winger Marcinho, who had played for Chongqing Liangjiang Athletic. In the second half of the J1 League, he made 7 appearances and delivered 3 assists. Although the offensive data is not eye-catching, in the case of very limited run-in time, Marcinho still provided a certain amount of immediate combat power, contributing to the successful defense of the Kawasaki striker.
Marcinho
Marcinho, 26, was born in the Belford Roche District of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In his early years, he trained in the academy of Curitiba, and by chance, he was discovered by scouts at the new Hamburg club and finally decided to play south.
In 2015, Marcinho competed in the Grande do Sul Championship and was offered the opportunity to join Brazil International because of his outstanding individual performance. Unfortunately, then-manager Odadiel Herman did not appreciate the young winger, who was known for his speed, especially after the arrival of Jonatan Alvarez and Peruvian striker Paul Guerrero, who had no place to stand. In order to get more opportunities to play, he had to go to the lower leagues.
Marcinho in the early years
In May 2018, Marcinho joined Fortaleza in The Second Division on loan. After being tapped by head coach Rogerio Seni (former Brazilian international), his expertise was further developed. For a long time, he was at the top of the list.
During his two seasons with Fortaleza, Marcinho scored seven goals in 48 appearances, helping the team win the Second Division, the Ceará State Championship and the Northeast Cup. In the summer of 2019, Brazil International decided to take back Marcinho in advance and sold the player to Chongqing Liangjiang Athletic for 1 million euros.
As a replacement for Fernando, the "little motorcycle", Marcinho has been placed high hopes on by the outside world, and the 5-year contract also shows the importance that Chongqing Liangjiang Athletic Club attaches to him. However, Marcinho has the advantage of speed, but it is difficult to integrate into the team's tactical system, neither Jordi Cruyff nor his successor Zhang Wailong has promoted him to the absolute main force.
This summer, Marcinho terminated his contract with Chongqing Liangjiang Athletic early, and then signed a six-month contract with Kawasaki Forward on a free throw. Competing against Ryuya Hasegawa, Daimi Tono and Tennomi Miyagi, he quickly came out on top as head coach Onimu Tatsuya in the left winger position.

J League debut against Tokushima Whirlpool, Marcinho assisted Chi Niankei and Hato Wakisaka scored, after which he started and quickly conquered the fans of Kawasaki Forward. At the ceremony of the victory, Marcinho looked very excited, and in the face of the reporter's interview, he also expressed his gratitude to the club and his teammates: "When I first arrived at Kawasaki Forward, I actually encountered a lot of difficulties, but my teammates and everyone in the club were very supportive of me, and I believe that I can help the team, even if I am responsible for defending and keeping an eye on people, I can do a good job." I am very happy to be a member of the Kawasaki striker and win the J1 league. ”
It is reported that Marcinho's contract with Kawasaki Forward expires on January 31 next year, and his goal is to win the Emperor's Cup and sign a new contract with the club.
