Joaquim Carvalho de Azevedo (born 23 August 1959), commonly known as Quim, is a Portuguese former footballer who played as a defensive midfielder.

Club career[]

During a 16-year professional career, Vila do Conde-born Quim played for four clubs. He started out at hometown's Rio Ave FC, achieving two Primeira Liga promotions with them during his six-year spell, following which he signed for FC Porto aged 25.

Quim was only regularly used in two of his five seasons with Porto, helping to the conquest of three leagues, one cup and two supercups. He also played the first 45 minutes of the 1986–87 European Cup final, as the team came from behind to win it 2–1 against FC Bayern Munich for their first triumph in the European Cup. Also from the bench, he appeared in that year's Intercontinental Cup, won against Peñarol in extra time,[1] as well as playing in the first leg of Porto's 1987 European Super Cup victory against AFC Ajax.[2]

For the 1989–90 campaign, Quim joined lowly F.C. Tirsense,[3] contributing 2,500 minutes as the northerners achieved their best-ever classification in the top flight (ninth), after which he played with S.C. Farense for two years also at that level. He then returned to his first club Rio Ave for a couple of second division seasons, retiring from the game at nearly 35.

Quim coached several teams in the 90s/2000s, never in higher than the Portuguese third tier.

International career[]

Between 1985 and 1987, Quim won four caps for Portugal. He was overlooked for the squad that competed at the 1986 FIFA World Cup.

Quim represented the under-20s in the 1979 FIFA World Youth Championship in Japan, appearing four times for the eventual quarter-finalists.
