The likes of Rogério Ceni, José Luis Chilavert, Jorge Campos and Vincent Enyeama are known to be good at both ends of the goal posts. They prevent goals from coming in and could also put the ball in the net for the teams, these guys are not expected to score goals but they add that to their games. But for Carlos Henrique Raposo whose primary role as a striker is to score goals to score just a goal having played for nine different teams across the 24 years career of his career is baffling considering his tally is way below Ceni, Chilavert, Campos and Enyeama’s who scored 131, 67, 46 and 20 respectively. Raposo apparently was referred to as ‘Farce footballer’ for the role he played in club hopping by faking injuries. According to wikipedia, he became friends with many footballers such as Carlos Alberto Torres, Ricardo Rocha and Renato Gaúcho so that he could have a big network to be recommended whenever he needed a new club. With a physical shape similar to professional footballers, but lacking skills, his fraud consisted of signing a short contract and stating that he was lacking match fitness so that he would spend the first weeks only with physical training where he could shine. At the time he went to train with other players, he would feign a hamstring injury and, by the lack of technology at the time, it was difficult to discover that it was a fake injury. So with few appearances came with zero goals since he never actually needed them to prove he can play for any club.
