Career
[edit]A striker of good height, he was trained in Flamengo's youth categories and participated in the club's achievements at the beginning of the 1980s. He made his mark in the history of Flamengo in the 1981 Copa Libertadores finals, where he entered the field as a substitute with a single purpose: punching Mario Soto, a CD Cobreloa defender, who, according to Flamengo players, even used a rock to attack them during the match in Santiago.[1][2][3]
