Fernando Mendes Soares Gomes (born 22 November 1956) is a retired Portuguese professional footballer who played as a striker. He achieved great success with FC Porto during the late 1970s and 80s. While technically only a good player, his talent resided on a fantastic positional sense, which made him very dangerous inside the six-yard box. The recipient of nearly 50 caps for Portugal, Gomes represented the nation in one World Cup and one European Championship. ==Club career== Showing great ability since entering FC Porto's youth squads, Porto-born Gomes scored twice in his first-team debut against G.D. CUF, in 1974. Except for a brief two-year stint with Sporting de Gijón, when most key players left the club in support of director of football – later president – Jorge Nuno Pinto da Costa,〔(FC Porto. O Verão quente de 1980, que esfriou a relação no futebol (FC Porto. 1980's hot summer, when football relations turned cold) ); IOnline, 6 August 2010 〕 he was on all important moments of the rebirth of the club: the 20-year league drought end in the 1978–79 season, the first UEFA Cup Winners' Cup final against Juventus F.C. in 1984 and, while he missed the 1987 final of the European Cup against FC Bayern Munich after breaking a leg days before, he scored five goals in the side's victorious campaign, including the important second against FC Dynamo Kyiv in the semifinals; he recovered still in time to play in the European Supercup against AFC Ajax and the Intercontinental Cup against C.A. Peñarol, on both occasions captaining the winner and scoring the opening goal in the latter game for a 2–1 win.〔(Toyota Cup 1987 ); FIFA.com〕 In addition Gomes also won five leagues, three Portuguese Cups and three domestic supercups. Due to personality clashes with the club's board he left for Sporting Clube de Portugal, ending his career in 1990–91 after still netting 22 league goals in his final season and also helping the ''Lions'' to that year's UEFA Cup semifinals, aged 34. Gomes retired with Portuguese League totals of 404 matches and 320 goals. His nickname, "Bi-bota", was given after the two European Golden Boot awards he received, in 1983 and 1985.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Award winners )〕 He remained the best goalscorer in the national territory for more than two decades, only behind S.L. Benfica's Nené, and later returned to Porto, going on to work with the club in an ambassadorial role. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fernando Gomes (footballer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
