Hilário Rosário da Conceição, OM (born 19 March 1939), known simply as Hilário (Portuguese pronunciation: [iˈlaɾiu]), is a retired Portuguese footballer who played as a left back.

He played his entire professional career with Sporting CP, appearing in nearly 450 official games and winning seven major trophies.[1]

An international for 12 years, Hilário represented the Portugal national football team at the 1966 World Cup.

Club career

Born in Lourenço Marques, Portuguese Mozambique, Hilário was first noticed at Sporting de Lourenço Marques as Eusébio, but the former signed for Sporting Clube de Portugal as the latter joined city rivals S.L. Benfica.

During 14 of the following 15 top level seasons Hilário was an undisputed starter for his team, winning three national championships and as many Portuguese Cups. He missed the club's conquest of the 1964 edition of the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup,[2] due to a serious tibia injury contracted against Vitória F.C. just three days before the final against MTK Budapest FC.[1]

After ending his playing days Hilário immediately embarked in a managerial career. This included his only spells in the Portuguese top flight, with S.C. Braga in the 1976–77 and the 1979–80 campaigns, and assistant and B-side stints with Sporting.

International career

Hilário played for the first time with the Portugal national football team on 11 November 1959, in a 3–5 friendly loss with France. He went on gain a further 39 caps, his last game being on 17 February 1971 in a 0–3 loss against Belgium for the UEFA Euro 1972 qualifiers.

Hilário was called up for the 1966 FIFA World Cup by manager Otto Glória, featuring in all the matches for the third-placed team.[3]
