Career

edit

Vitória Guimarães

edit

In the summer of 2010, three seasons after finishing his professional career as a player, Evangelista embarked on his managerial career by taking charge of Vitória S.C.'s under-19 team. After two seasons there, he departed to take charge of F.C. Vizela in the third tier.

Evangelista's stay with Vizela was short-lived, and in April 2013 he returned to Vitória to manage its reserve side in Segunda Liga until the end of the season.[1] Despite claiming 9 points from a possible 21, he was unable to prevent relegation to the third tier.[2]

However, Evangelista's stay was prolonged and in 2013–14 season he led the Conquistadores to a first-place finish, and thus promotion back to the second tier.[3][4][5] The following season, he took them to 9th.[6] He was subsequently named manager of the first team in June 2015 after Rui Vitória's departure from the club.[7][8]

After just five league matches – a win and a loss each – and elimination from the UEFA Europa League qualifiers by Austria's SC Rheindorf Altach, Evangelista was dismissed on 21 September.[9]

Three clubs in four years

Evangelista with Penafiel in 2018

In May 2016, Evangelista succeeded Nuno Capucho at Varzim S.C. in the second tier.[10] He left on 13 October, with the team in 12th.[11]

In September 2017, Evangelista returned to the same league at 15th-placed F.C. Penafiel for the rest of the season.[12] He then signed on for the following campaign,[13] in which he took the team to 8th then left to be replaced by Miguel Leal.[14]

Evangelista returned to work on 5 February 2020, at U.D. Vilafranquense, presiding over only four games as the season was curtailed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and then turning down a new deal.[15][16]

Arouca

edit

On 15 May 2020, Evangelista moved to second-tier newcomers F.C. Arouca.[17] In his first season, Arouca came third and then defeated Rio Ave F.C. in the play-offs to reach the Primeira Liga for the first time since 2017.[18] After a win over Moreirense F.C. the team made the Taça da Liga semi-finals for the first time the 2022–23 season, where they lost 2–1 to Sporting CP.[19][20] The league season ended with a club joint-best fifth place, qualifying for the UEFA Europa Conference League.[21] Evangelista then turned down a contract renewal and left the club.[22]

Goiás

edit

On 9 June 2023, it was reported that Evangelista accepted an offer from Campeonato Brasileiro Série A side Goiás Esporte Clube to become their new head coach.[23] On 14 November, he was dismissed with the club in the relegation zone.[24]

Famalicão

edit

On 20 March 2024, Evangelista returned to Portugal as he was named manager of top tier side F.C. Famalicão on a deal until the end of the campaign, replacing João Pedro Sousa who had left by mutual consent a day earlier.[25]
