FIFA's official account celebrated on Twitter with the completion of the 38-year-old former Brazilian national soccer star Adriano, describing him as the 2005 Confederations Cup champion and the owner of the golden ball and golden shoe as the best player and scorer in the tournament.

Adriano reached the climax of his glory in the Confederations Cup in Germany, which did not pass a game except in which he made his mark, especially the semi-final in front of the owner of the land and the final match in which he swept Seleção and his Argentine counterpart 4-1, in which he scored two wonderful goals with a missile and a header.

Adriano's remarkable brilliance led him to be nominated by some to be the successor to Ronaldo, but he disappointed everyone and let his star drop after he was seduced by some gangsters and drugs, to extinguish his star and end his football career quickly.

Despite his short years of brilliance, Adriano achieved great achievements at the club level as well, where he won the Inter League title four times in a row beginning in the 2005-2006 season, he also won with the Samba team the Copa America in 2007, and participated in the 2006 World Cup in Germany.

After reaching the pinnacle of stardom, his father, who was always doing his behavior, died, and his level suddenly fell in 2008, and the Brazilian club Sao Paulo abandoned him, and there was his end, as gangsters around his hometown of the shantytown of Rio de Janeiro, famous for its high rate of organized crime, turned around. In it, his life changes and the countdown to the end begins, after he increased his weight significantly until he finally retired in 2011.

Adriano became depressed and alcoholic, until he attempted suicide to get rid of his life, which was turned upside down from stardom to hanging out in the shantytown amid random buildings.
