A typical “slumdog millionaire” case – midfielder Marcos Senna grew up in a poor suburb of Sao Paulo but became a champion as a member of the Spanish national team. He combined his football training with work as an office errand boy and as a hand at a belt-making factory. His father was so poor that he couldn't even afford a 125-kilometer journey to see his son play as a member of the Rio Branco provincial club. Though a naturalized Spaniard, Senna keeps his Brazilian habits: he prefers beans, rice and meat to Spanish paella.
