:''For other Brazilian footballers nicknamed ''Anderson'', see: Anderson (footballer)''. Ânderson Corrêa Polga (born 9 February 1979) is a Brazilian retired footballer who played as a central defender. He spent most of his professional career with Sporting in Portugal, appearing in 327 official games (four goals) and winning four major titles. He started playing for Grêmio. Polga represented Brazil at the 2002 World Cup, winning the competition. ==Club career== Groomed at Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense, Polga was born in Santiago, Rio Grande do Sul, being an important defensive unit from early on and helping the club to two trophies in 2001: the Rio Grande do Sul State Championship and the Brazilian Cup. In 2003 he moved to Sporting Clube de Portugal, becoming the first World Cup champion ever to play in the country. He quickly became a defensive stalwart for the Lisbon-based side, helping it to the UEFA Cup final in his third year – after a run-in with then coach José Peseiro, he was an unused substitute in the decisive game, a 1–3 defeat against PFC CSKA Moscow – as well as to four consecutive league runner-up finishes. Not prone to score, Polga netted his first two goals for the ''Lions'' in the 2007–08 UEFA Champions League, in both group stage matches against FC Dynamo Kyiv.〔(Polga strike downs Dynamo ); UEFA.com, 3 October 2007〕〔(Sporting bow out with a win ); UEFA.com, 13 December 2007〕 He played in 43 games in all competitions during the season and, in 2009–10, as Sporting could only finish fourth, he lost his starting position to Tonel – who previously had lost his to youth graduate Daniel Carriço – but still managed to appear in 25 official matches (1,983 minutes). He left in June 2012 at the age of 33, and returned to Brazil. On 5 September 2012 Polga signed for Sport Club Corinthians Paulista, who had just sold Leandro Castán and loaned Marquinhos, both to A.S. Roma.〔(Corinthians acerta contratação do zagueiro Anderson Polga (Corinthians agrees signing of stopper Anderson Polga) ); Lance Net, 5 September 2012 〕 At the end of the campaign, the club decided against renewing his contract.〔(À espera de reforços para zaga, Corinthians não renovará com Polga (Waiting to strengthen back sector, Corinthians will not renew Polga) ); Surgiu, 9 December 2012 〕 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「Ânderson Polga」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
