Clodoaldo Tavares de Santana, better known as Clodoaldo (Brazilian Portuguese: [klodoˈawdu]; born 25 September 1949), is a Brazilian former footballer who played as a defensive midfielder.[1]

Club career

[edit]

Clodoaldo spent most of his career at Santos, with whom he had won five Campeonato Paulista, as well as a Campeonato Brasileiro Série A and the 1968 Intercontinental Supercup. [2]

He suffered a career-threatening knee injury when he is 29 years old,[3] and as a result, he left Santos in 1979 to join NASL team Tampa Bay Rowdies. He returned to Brazil after a single season in the United States, joining Nacional-AM. [4][5]

International career

[edit]

Clodoaldo was capped 38 times with Brazil between 1969 and 1974.[5] He was part of the Brazil squad that won the 1970 FIFA World Cup, and scored the equalising goal in the semi-final against Uruguay. He then memorably contributed to the famous goal by Carlos Alberto Torres against Italy in the final by dribbling past four of the opposition's players in his own half.[1]

Managerial career

[edit]

Clodoaldo briefly coached Santos after he retired in 1982.[2] In 2010, he became the manager of the East Timor national team, but left the position after three matches due family reasons. [6]
