Mário Jorge Moinhos Matos (13 May 1949 – 7 November 2023), known as Moinhos, eas a Portuguese footballer who played as a forward.

Club career

Born in Vila Nova de Gaia, Porto District, Moinhos started playing professionally in 1969, with Porto-based club Boavista FC. After two solid last seasons, especially 1972–73 when he scored 15 goals in 29 games to help his team to the seventh position,[2] he moved to Primeira Liga giants S.L. Benfica.[3]

During his four-year spell in Lisbon, Moinhos appeared intermittently but did contribute 57 matches and 20 goals from 1974 to 1976,[4][5] eventually helping Benfica to three consecutive national championships. In 1977 he returned to Boavista, where he remained three further seasons.[3]

Moinhos finished his career after four years with S.C. Espinho, retiring at the age of 35 after the end of the 1983–84 campaign with his side being relegated.[3] In the following decades he would again work with Boavista, in its coaching departments,[6] while also being undermined by health problems and poor finances.[7]

International career

Whilst at Benfica, Moinhos won seven caps for Portugal, scoring once.[8] He made his debut on 24 April 1975 in a 2–0 friendly win in Paris against France,[9] and appeared for the last time on 16 October 1976 in a 0–2 home loss to Poland, at the beginning of the 1978 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
