Career[edit]

Marcinho played for several clubs in Brazil, with emphasis on his time at Oeste FC, where he was top scorer in 2011 Série D and champion of 2012 Série C.[1] He ended his career at CS Sergipe as state champion.[2][3]

His nickname "Beija-Flor" (English: hummingbird) was given because the athlete, short in stature, had good impulsion and seemed to stop in the air.[2]
