Bebeto’s son Oliveira joins Sporting Lisbon

AFP, LISBON: The son of Brazil's celebrated 1994 World Cup winner Bebeto, Mattheus Oliveiro, has joined Sporting Lisbon on a five year contract, the topflight Portuguese side announced on Tuesday.
The 22-year-old attacking midfielder moves from Sporting's domestic rivals Estoril after starting his career at Rio de Janeiro side Flamengo. Oliveiro was just days old when his father - full name Jose Roberto Gama de Oliveira -- helped Brazil win their fourth World Cup.
Bebeto, now a Rio state legislator, scored three goals in that triumphant campaign in the United States.
After his goal against the Netherlands in the quarter-finals in Dallas he melted hearts worldwide with his famous 'baby cradle' celebration for his newborn son Mattheus.
