Edite Fernandes (born October 10, 1979 in Vila do Conde ) is a Portuguese soccer player and since 2010 she has been the record scorer of the women's national team in her country.

Career

society

Edite played in her youth for Boavista Porto , the Portuguese champions from 1993/94, 1994/95 and 1996/97. In 1998 she moved to SU 1º Dezembro and also became champions with her new club. There she played with Carla Couto until 2002 , who then went to China for a year. 2010 Edite moved to the Norwegian club FK Donn , who had been promoted to the Norwegian first division . You scored three goals in a game against IF Fløya . At the end of the season, the club finished 9th, but was bankrupt and therefore had to leave the league. This was followed by a detour to the USA to Santa Clarita Blue Heat in the USL W-League . The Blue Heat took first place in the Western Division of the Western Conference at the end of the league round, but lost the Western Conference Playoff 3: 4 against runners-up Vancouver Whitecaps FC. She then moved back to her homeland to Valadares Gaia FC and played for Sporting Braga from 2016 to 2018 . In July 2018 she moved to the CF Benfica team .

National team

Edite played her first international match on February 28, 1998 at the age of 18 in qualifying for the 1999 World Cup . It was also the Portuguese’s first international match against Belgium and was won 2-0. Edite came on in the 71st minute for Carla Couto . It was also used in the four games of the 1998 Algarve Cup that followed immediately, and in the following year in three games of the 1999 Algarve Cup . After two more games in 1999, she remained without an international match in 2000. At the Algarve Cup 2001 she was used again and there she also scored her first international goal. She scored it on March 15, 2001, when the Portuguese lost 2-1 in their first game against Canada . Ten years later, on November 19, 2011, she made her 100th international match against Austria in qualifying for the EM 2013 as the third Portuguese . Edite was never able to qualify for a major football tournament with the national team and, compared to other players who played a comparable time for their country, had "only" 131 international matches. She regularly took part in the Algarve Cup for her team - except in 2002, 2012 and 2014 - and scored 15 goals, placing her in third place on the tournament's overall list of goalscorers. Only world record holder Abby Wambach and her teammate Carla Couto scored more goals in the Algarve Cup. On February 24, 2010, she managed her first "triple pack" there against the Faroe Islands . She had a second "triple pack" about a month later in a 7-0 World Cup qualifier against Armenia . With the third goal, her 24th goal in total, she replaced Carla Couto as the record scorer. Both then fought an internal competition for the most goals, but Edite stayed ahead and is now at 39 goals, while Carla ended her career with 29 goals. All other Portuguese women follow at a considerable distance, the third-best, the no longer active Patricia , scored 13 goals. Most recently, Edite was only substituted on and after years as team captain , Cláudia Neto has now taken on this role . On January 10, 2017, she announced her resignation from the national team.
