With Fortaleza 's shirt , Frasson scored one of the most remarkable goals in the history of Tricolor do Pici. After eight years without lifting the Cearense Championship cup , Leão overcame Ceará in the 2000 final, precisely with a goal scored by Daniel. Frasson's goal and Fortaleza's title prevented Ceará's fifth championship that year.
"Of several situations in my career as a professional athlete, this was one that I felt the most emotion about. It was a great pleasure for everything we went through inside the club. I was crowned with the goal. It was a very good feeling. One of the most successful titles celebrated in my career," Frasson said in an interview with GE in 2015.
