Aymoré Moreira (born April 24, 1912 in Miracema , † July 26, 1998 in Salvador da Bahia ) was a Brazilian soccer player and coach who led the Brazilian national soccer team to win the title at the 1962 World Cup .

Life

Moreira was born in Miracema , in the state of Rio de Janeiro . He started out as a right winger but soon became a goalkeeper. He played for the clubs America FC (RJ) , Palmeiras São Paulo and Botafogo FR , where he was active between 1936 and 1946. He was appointed to the Brazilian national soccer team.

He was offered the management of the reigning world champion, the Brazilian national soccer team before the 1962 World Cup. One of the reasons was probably the poor health of the overweight Vicente Feola . This led Brazil to its first World Cup title in its history. Moreira were essentially the world-class players Gilmar , Djalma Santos , Nílton Santos , Didi , Garrincha , Pelé , Vavá and Mário Zagallo . These had already formed the backbone of the team in 1958.

Despite Pelé's failure in the preliminary round, the Brazilian team won the title. Garrincha had become one of the team's top performers.

Moreira coached Brazil a total of 61 games and won 37 of them (9 draws and 15 defeats). He also won other titles with the team. He was succeeded by Feola again in 1964 and after Vicente Feola later failed as a coach at the World Cup in England in 1966 , Moreira followed him again and stayed until 1968. Moreira later coached several clubs, including such well-known ones as Botafogo FR , São Paulo FC , Galícia EC and Panathinaikos Athens .

Moreira died in Salvador da Bahia at the age of 86.
