Career

society

Pereira was born in Maputo to Portuguese parents . He started his professional career at the regional club CD Maxaquene as a goalkeeper . In 1949 he returned to the land of his ancestors and was signed by the Portuguese first division club Sporting Lisbon . He played there for nine years until he had to end his career at the age of 29 due to a knee injury. During that time he won the championship five times and even the double in 1954 .

National team

He made his debut in the Portuguese national football team on November 23, 1952 in a friendly against Austria , which ended 1: 1. He played his last game on June 9, 1956 against Hungary , which also ended 1-1.

In his four-year national team career, he played a total of six games.

Coaching career

In 1960, Pereira began his career as coach of the Sporting Lisbon U19 team. In the following year he became head coach of the professional team and won the championship in 1962 and 1966 and the national cup in 1963 with them.

After coaching Vitória Guimarães , Académica de Coimbra and FC Barreirense in the following years , he returned to Sporting Lisbon in the 1975/76 season. He was fired again at the end of the season, however, because he could not reach fifth place with the team and thus missed the qualification for the international competition.

In 1977 he was appointed coach of the Portuguese national team and played five games with her in qualifying for the 1978 World Cup , three of which were won. However, only the second place was achieved and thus the qualification was missed.

In 1980 he was reappointed national coach. In qualifying for the 1982 World Cup , he only reached fourth place and again missed the finals.

Pereira was appointed national coach again in 1987, but was unable to qualify for the 1990 World Cup at the third attempt and only achieved third place. Because of this, he was subsequently released.

He was sporting director at Sporting Lisbon until 2004 and died in 2007 at the age of 78.
