José Ribamar de Oliveira, best known as Canhoteiro (24 September 193216 August 1974) was a Brazilian footballer, who played most notably for São Paulo FC. Canhoteiro means essentially "left footed."
Canhoteiro was regarded as one of Brazil's greatest dribblers of his generation. and played during a time of exceptional talent in that country. He had epic games against Pelé of Santos FC, one in particular in 1958, played under heavy rain at Pacaembu Stadium in São Paulothe game ended tied at two goals each, with Pelé and Canhoteiro scoring both goals for each of their clubs. Canhoteiro died pennyless and an alcoholic, the fate of many a footballer in the early years of the game.
