Timeline
Jose Carlos Metidieri (born December 18, 1942) is a retired soccer player who played as a forward.
He played professionally in Canada with Toronto Italia and the United States with the Rochester Lancers.
Known as Topolino ("Little Mouse" in Italian; also the name of Mickey Mouse in Italy) due to his 5'4" stature and explosive speed on the field, moved on to Canada and joined Toronto Italia of the Eastern Canada Professional Soccer League in 1963. There he was the 1965 and 1966 league leading scorer and the 1966 Most Valuable Player. In 1967, he moved to the Boston Rovers in the United Soccer Association before joining the Los Angeles Wolves, alongside cousin Gilson, for the North American Soccer League's first season. During his tenure with Boston he was permitted to play in the National Soccer League (NSL) with Toronto Inter-Roma.
After one season in Los Angeles, Metidieri moved to the Rochester Lancers.
He achieved his 'double double' with the Lancers, a team he played with for four summers.
He was the leading scorer of the North American Soccer League in 1970 and 1971 with the Lancers and was named the league's Most Valuable Player—the only player in the league's history to receive both awards in consecutive seasons.
He scored 35 points in 23 games in 1970 and 46 points, including 19 goals, in 24 games in 1971.
In 1971, he was the MVP and league leading scorer.
Rochester fans affectionately remember his game-winning goal in the longest professional soccer match ever played lasting 176 minutes in duration at Holleder Stadium against the visiting Dallas Tornado in 1971.
In 1971 as a member of the Lancers, Metidieri also took part in the league's first ever indoor tournament, scoring one goal and earning two penalty minutes.
Born in Brazil, he earned two caps for the United States national team in 1973.
Metidieri began playing soccer at age 16 at the local club Clube Atlético Votorantim.
Thereafter, he was contracted by SE Palmeiras of Säo Paulo from where he moved to Italy, to play for SSC Napoli.
His young age and limits on the number of foreigners playing on Italian teams caused him to soon leave this club to join Como Calcio.
While there, a broken arm was a major setback to his development.
Metidieri played in two 'A' internationals for the United States national soccer team in 1973.
His first game was a 4–0 loss to Bermuda on March 17.
His second was a 4–0 loss to Poland on March 20.
He also played an unofficial match, a 6–0 loss to Belgium, on March 29.
He is the nephew of the former president of Esporte Clube São Bento and the Football Association of the state of São Paulo, Alfredo Metidieri.
After his retirement from soccer he lived in Rochester, New York where he owned a pizza restaurant.
He later moved to Phoenix, Arizona.
He now resides in Gilbert, Arizona with his wife and youngest daughter.
