Aymoré Moreira (24 April 1912 – 26 July 1998) was a Brazilianfootball player and coach, who played as agoalkeeper. He was a brother ofZezé Moreira andAyrton Moreira, both of whom were also successful coaches inBrazilian football.
Moreira was born inMiracema,Rio de Janeiro. He began his career as aright-winger, but soon he changed to become a goalkeeper, playing forAmérica,Palestra Itália andBotafogo, where he remained from 1936 to 1946 and earned call-ups to theBrazil national team, the "Canarinho" (Portuguese of Little Canary).
After his retirement as a player, he became a successful coach, leading Brazil to its second FIFA World Cup in1962. In the first match againstMexico,Pelé assisted on the first goal and scored the second one, later injuring himself while attempting a long-range shot againstCzechoslovakia. This kept him out of the remainder of the tournament and forced Moreira to make his only lineup change of the tournament; bringing inAmarildo. The replacement duly scored in thefinal, a rematch against Czechoslovakia.Garrincha starred in the 3–1 win.
Moreira managed Brazil national team for 61 matches, with 37 wins, 9 draws and 15 losses. Besides winning the World Cup, he led the "Canarinha" to win theTaça Oswaldo Cruz in 1961 and 1962,Taça Bernardo O'Higgins in 1961 and 1966,Roca Cup in 1963 andTaça Rio Branco in 1967.
