Ricardo Gomes Raimundo (born December 13, 1964 in Rio de Janeiro ) is a Brazilian soccer coach and former player .

Player career

society

Ricardo Gomes started his active professional career in 1982 in Fluminense Rio de Janeiro . With the Fluzão he won the National Championship of Rio de Janeiro three times in a row between 1983 and 1985 . The team celebrated their greatest national success in 1985 when they won the Campeonato Brasileiro de Futebol , the national championship. In Fluminense, Gomes developed into a defensively parked defender and also moved into the focus of the national team for the first time. But European teams also took notice of the Brazilian. At the age of 23, Gomes then moved to Europe, where he signed with Benfica Lisbon . He immediately became a regular player and, together with compatriot Valdo, who also came in the summer, a key player in the club. The national championship was celebrated in the very first year . In 1990/91, Gomes and his team repeated this success. After his second championship in Portugal, he left Benfica and he and Valdo moved to France, to Paris Saint-Germain . Again, both were crucial pillars in the PSG team . With the entry of financially strong partner Canal + , the PSG board was able to sign other stars such as David Ginola , Paul Le Guen , Bernard Lama or Alain Roche and build a competitive team. As early as 1993, they were runner-up behind Olympique Marseille . This title was stripped from Marseille some time later after it became known that club president Bernard Tapie had paid bribes before the point game against US Valenciennes . So Gomes was able to celebrate his first French championship title with Paris SG without having become first. So after being awarded the title at the green table in 1993 , Gomes' team made it on their own in 1994 and stayed at the top of Ligue 1 ahead of Marseille . In 1993 and 1995 they played very successfully in the competition for the Coupe de France and were able to win it twice after winning the final against FC Nantes Atlantique and RC Strasbourg . In 1995 Gomes decided to move back to Lisbon, to Benfica. In his last year as a professional he was able to look forward to winning the Taça de Portugal again . He then ended his active career in 1996.

National team

Gomes was Brazil's national player for ten years between 1984 and 1994 . In 1987 he was called up for his first major tournament and was part of the senior team for the Copa America . During the course of the tournament, however, he was not used. Two years later he was back in the squad at the Copa in Brazil. Now a regular player, he played seven out of seven possible games and was one of the main pillars of the team that won this title for the first time since 1949. In the decisive game, the Seleção beat Uruguay 1-0. The following year, his coach nominated Sebastião Lazaroni into the squad for the 1990 FIFA World Cup in Italy. In all possible encounters he was used as captain of his team. Brazil won all group matches and met arch-rivals Argentina in the round of 16 . With a score of 1-0 for Argentina, Argentina’s José Horacio Basualdo sprinted towards the Brazil’s goal alone in the 85th minute, which Gomes was only able to prevent with an emergency brake. He was sent off with red. Disgraced, he did not take part in the 1991 and 1993 Copa America . It wasn't until 1994 that he was supposed to help the team at the World Cup in the USA . However, due to an injury, Gomes had to cancel and just watched as his team celebrated their fourth World Cup win.

With the Brazilian Olympic selection, he also took part in the 1988 Summer Games in Seoul and won the silver medal.

Coaching career

At the beginning of the 1996/97 season he took over as coach at Paris Saint-Germain . He led the club to second place in the French league and into the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup , where Paris lost 1-0 to FC Barcelona . In 1998 Paris won the French Cup and League Cup. Then he submitted his resignation.

He then coached various clubs in Brazil, including EC Vitória , Sport Recife , Guarani FC , Coritiba FC , EC Juventude and Fluminense FC .

In the summer of 2005 he returned to France and became a coach at Girondins Bordeaux . He led the team, which had narrowly escaped relegation in the previous season, to the runner-up and qualified them for the UEFA Champions League . There Bordeaux was eliminated in the preliminary round. The 2006/07 season ended Bordeaux in 6th place and won the League Cup. At the end of the season, Gomes resigned from his coaching position.

A short time later, he signed a two-year contract with league rivals AS Monaco .

In 2011 Ricardo Gomes was the coach of Vasco da Gama (Brazil). In the league game against Flamengo (0-0), he suffered a brain hemorrhage at the end of August 2011. Despite an emergency operation, the ex-Paris Saint-Germain coach fought with death.
