Paulo Sérgio Rosa, usually known as Viola (born on January 1, 1969 in São Paulo, São Paulo state) is a Brazilian football player who plays as a forward. He played at the 1994 FIFA World Cup finals, and appeared as a substitute in the final.
He is famous in Brazil for losing his temper on two separate occasions on a football field within a few months during 1998. In a cup match against Corinthians, after refusing to leave the pitch when he was sent off for dissent, Viola followed the referee around the field. He had to be physically restrained by his team-mates before being led away by three riot policemen. In the quarter-final of the Brazilian championship against Sport Recife, play was delayed for almost 20 minutes after Viola attacked a radio reporter. Viola gained only 10 caps with 3 goals for Brazil, mainly due to his indiscipline on and off the field rather than his inabilities as a player. He did however lift the World Cup in 1994.
