Paulo Roberto Bacinello (born 29 September 1959), commonly known as Paulinho Cascavel, is a Brazilian retired footballer who played as a striker.

Unknown in his native land, he played most of his professional career in Portugal for Vitória de Guimarães and Sporting Lisbon.[1] His nickname stems from his birthplace.

Football career

Born in Cascavel, Paraná, Cascavel started his career with local amateurs Cascavel Clube Recreativo, then successively represented Criciúma Esporte Clube, Joinville Esporte Clube and Fluminense Football Club. In 1984 he moved to Portugal, signing with league club F.C. Porto, but his spell there was quite unassuming, as he amassed virtually no official appearances.

In the following season Cascavel joined Guimarães' Vitória Sport Clube, scoring 22 goals in his second year – league's best – as the Minho side overachieved for a final third place, and qualified for the UEFA Cup.

Cascavel was then signed by Sporting Clube de Portugal for the 1987–88 campaign and scored 23 goals, but the Lisbon club finished fourth. He also scored six goals in six matches in the club's quarterfinal run in the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.[2]

Cascavel's numbers reduced significantly in the following years, and he retired in June 1991 still in Portugal, with Gil Vicente FC.
