Club career
In his time with Home United FC, Gonçalves scored a total of 239 S.League goals in 11 S.League seasons and was the first recipient of the 100 S.League goals award in 2001, although he had managed 107 by the end of that season. He reached the 100 goals mark in a hat-trick against SAFFC in a 4–0 win. It was due to S.League deciding not to include the inaugural Singapore Cup goals as it was known as League Cup but backtracked on it later. He was also awarded the 200 S.League goals award in 2004 which he reached the mark, in a hat-trick again, against Sinchi in a 5–1 win.
Gonçalves was the top scorer in the S.League in 2004 and joint top scorer with Indra Sahdan Daud in the AFC Cup in 2004.
In January 2007, Gonçalves returned to Brazil in after failing to agree a new contract with Home United.
He was the all-time topscorer in the S.League until Mirko Grabovac later overtook his place.
He played for Desportiva Capixaba in Espírito Santo state and then retired.
International career
Gonçalves failed to make any impact for Singapore at international level. He was one of the players brought over in the unsuccessful foreign talent scheme endorsed by the Football Association of Singapore, although he is well remembered for scoring in the 4–2 away defeat against Iraq in the 2007 Asian Cup qualifying campaign.[1]
Personal life
Gonçalves lives in Vila Velha city, Brazil, with his wife and children.
