Jorge Manuel Martins da Silva (born 12 August 1954), known as Martins, is a Portuguese retired professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.
Club career
[edit]Martins was born in Alhos Vedros, Moita, Setúbal District. During his professional career, which spanned 19 years, he played for F.C. Barreirense, Vitória de Setúbal (three spells), S.L. Benfica, S.C. Farense and C.F. Os Belenenses, appearing in more than 600 matches as a professional, 310 in the Primeira Liga alone.[2][1]
On 28 May 1989, Martins' Belenenses won the Taça de Portugal by defeating his former club Benfica 2–1 at the Estádio Nacional.[3]
International career
[edit]Martins was a participant at UEFA Euro 1984 and the 1986 FIFA World Cup, as a backup to Manuel Bento in the former tournament – he was also his reserve during his two-year spell at Benfica – and third-choice in the latter behind Bento and Vítor Damas. He never won a senior cap, however.[4]
Personal life
[edit]Martins was nicknamed Rambo and Stallone, due to physical similarities with the American actor and the fictional character he portrayed.[1]
