Sebastião Barroso Lazaroni,[1] (born 25 September 1950[1]) is a Brazilianfootballmanager who last coachedQatar Stars League clubQatar SC.[2] He was born inMuriaé,Minas Gerais state.[1]
He is well known in Brazil as the manager who tried to introduce thelibero position in Brazilian football.[3] He used the3–5–2 scheme during the1990 FIFA World Cup, but it was a failure, andBrazil was eliminated in the second round byArgentina.[3]
When he was the Brazil national team head coach, in 35 matches, he won 21, drew seven and lost seven.[3]
He helped Brazil win theSouth American Championship in1989, the team's first Copa América title in 39 years.
He is also known for his being the head coach of Turkish clubFenerbahçe that ended the 40-year undefeated European home record ofManchester United in theUEFA Champions' League match in 1996.[4]
He took over the Qatar national team on 1 August 2011 as a replacement forMilovan Rajevac, but was ultimately fired four months later as a result of the team's unimpressive performances. TheQFA highlighted his failure to advance past the group stage of the2011 Pan Arab Games, which Qatar had hosted, as a main cause of his sacking. His record with the team ended with two wins, five draws and two losses.[5] He was officially sacked on 3 January 2012 after his contract was released by QFA.[citation needed]
Lazaroni was last in charge ofQatar SC for the third time in his career following spells with theDoha based club between 2008 and 2011 and 2012 and 2014.[2] His third spell ended in disappointment and he was dismissed in May 2016 after the club's relegation fromQatar Stars League.[citation needed]
