Star goalkeeper "El Gato" has just won soccer’s coveted World Cup. In an interview with a sports journalist, he talks about growing up in Brazil in a poor logging town and exploring the Amazonian rain forest near his home. It was in the heart of the jungle that a young Gato discovered a small soccer field-and met his mysterious mentor, the Keeper.
