Club career
A defensive midfielder, Machado was a leading player for Vitória de Setúbal and F.C. Porto during the 1970s, winning two national champion titles. Over the course of 15 top division seasons, he amassed totals of 307 games and 25 goals; with the latter club, he was also involved in an internal dispute which resulted in the departure of 15 players, along with manager José Maria Pedroto and director of football Jorge Nuno Pinto da Costa.[1]
After retiring at the age of 35, Machado went on to become an assistant coach to Artur Jorge, joining his Porto staff in 1984–85. There, he won two leagues in a row and the 1987 European Champions Cup, remaining alongside Jorge into the 1990s, when he finally became a leading trainer, coaching both Porto and Sporting Clube de Portugal.
International career
Machado gained 20 caps for the Portuguese national team, 10 for both Setúbal and Porto, scoring two goals. His first appearance was on 21 November 1971, a 1–1 against Belgium in the UEFA Euro 1972 qualifiers.
Machado's last international was against Poland on 29 October 1977, a 1–1 draw in the 1978 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign.
