Arnaldo Poffo Garcia (born 2 September 1940), better known as Peixinho, is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as forward. [1] [2] [3]
Even without winning titles, he entered the history of São Paulo FC by being the scorer of the first goal in history of Estádio do Morumbi, 2 August 1960, against Sporting CP. The feat was such that in Brazil, the expression " Gol de Peixinho" was created, where the player jumps to head the ball close to the field. [4] [5]
He is son of Peixe, the top scorer of 1940 Campeonato Paulista, which is also why he has the nickname "Peixinho" (English: Little Fish).
