Edder José Farías Martínez (born 12 April 1988) is a Venezuelan footballer who plays as a forward for Atlético Venezuela.

He began his career at Monagas, playing four Primera División Venezolana seasons before a transfer to Caracas in 2012. Overall, he has totalled over 50 goals and over 150 appearances in the league, and made his international debut for Venezuela in 2010.

Club career

Monagas

Born in Maturín, Monagas, Farías began his career at hometown club Monagas Sport Club in the 2008–09 season of the Primera División Venezolana, scoring 8 goals in 27 games in his debut campaign and 9 in 31 in the next.[1]

On 10 April 2011, he came on as a half-time substitute for Edward Leonett and was sent off in the 74th minute for a second booking in an eventual 1–1 draw at Deportivo Petare;[2] on 8 May that season, he scored a hat-trick in a 3–1 win at ACD Lara.[1]

Caracas

Two Chilean clubs and Caracas FC tracked Farías in May 2012.[3] Due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury on 13 July, he did not sign a contract at the capital-based club until 11 December, linking up on a deal until 2015.[4]

On 12 March 2013, Farías netted his first goal for Caracas, the winner in a 2–1 triumph over Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense at the Estadio Olímpico in the season's Copa Libertadores.[5] He scored his first league goals for his new club two weeks later, a hat-trick at Portuguesa FC in a 4–3 win.[6] On 12 November 2014, Farías was sent off in the 38th minute of a 2–1 loss at Trujillanos FC, for a foul on Luiyi Erazo which required him to be substituted.[7]

On 24 March 2015, Caracas extended Farías' contract until 2017.[8] That 15 August, he was loaned to C.F. União, newly promoted to Portugal's Primeira Liga for the upcoming season.[9] He scored his first goal for the Madeirans on 27 September, a late consolation in their 2–1 loss at GD Estoril.[10]

International career

Farías made his full international debut for Venezuela on 2 February 2010, as an added-time replacement for Alejandro Moreno at the end of a goalless friendly draw against Japan at the Ōita Bank Dome.[11] On 20 May in Oranjestad, he scored his first international goal, concluding a 3–0 win over Aruba.[12]

On 4 February 2015, Farías came off the bench to score in a 3–2 away win over Honduras, breaking a sequence of five consecutive defeats for the Vinotinto with their first victory since September 2013.[13]
