What if I told you he isn't real?
Yes. Upon the creation of the game, one of the developers decided to implement a "cheat player". It wasn't a foreign concept: the first cheat players appeared for Cambridge United in '93 after the first season. His name, as you might be able to work out, is named after one of the scouts assigned to Portugal named him after "to Madeira", the city in Portugal (same place as Cristiano Ronaldo's birthplace).

One record from The Telegraph, (yes, The Telegraph cares about this game), states he scored 67 goals in a season.
Even though he isn't real, he still lies as arguably the most famous player in the game.
And that, my friends, is the short-lived story of the legend that is To Madeira.

Started off with no goals in his first 8 games, then hit 11 in the final 3 of the season if my memory is correct. Think he got a cup final hat trick.
Scored 35 in his first full season, then SEVENTY (YES 70) in his second season.
Can't recall if there was a third and fourth season, or just a third, but he was on 35 midway through the season when my game corrupted.
I never played the game again.
That team also had Tonton as captain.
