Career

edit

Rafael started his career at Corinthians and had his first chance as main goalkeeper in 1974 during the club's title drought, however, after failing in the final against Palmeiras, he was loaned to Ponte Preta. In 1977 he was exactly the goalkeeper for the club from the city of Campinas in the final that ended the sequence without titles for Corinthians. In 1981 he returned, during the movement called "Corinthians Democracy", however due to personal differences with Wladimir and Walter Casagrande, Rafael ended up leaving the club again.[3]

He went to Atlético Paranaense, and there Rafael began his successful career with state titles in 1982 and 1983. It was at their rival, Coritiba, that Rafael reached his peak, being the goalkeeper in winning the Brazilian title in 1985.[4]

In 1992 Campeonato Paranaense, scored a penalty kick goal against Operário Ferroviário.[5]
