Luís Maria Cabral Norton de Matos (born 14 December 1953) is a former Portuguese footballer who played as a forward, and a current coach.
He amassed Primeira Liga totals of 210 games and 36 goals over the course of nine seasons, representing in the competition Académica, Estoril, Atlético, Belenenses and Portimonense. In 1989 he became a manager, going on to work with several clubs.
Born in Lisbon, Norton de Matos began playing professionally with local S.L. Benfica, but only appeared for the reserves in official games, also being loaned to Académica de Coimbra where he made his Primeira Liga debuts. Released by Benfica in the 1974 summer, he spent three of the following four years also in the top flight, with G.D. Estoril Praia, Atlético Clube de Portugal and C.F. Os Belenenses, scoring a total of ten league goals combined.
In 1978, Norton de Matos moved abroad and joined Standard Liège in Belgium, helping the team to the second position in the Belgian Pro League in his second season and adding the 1981 Belgian Cup. Aged nearly 28, he returned home and signed with Portimonense SC, scoring a career-best 12 goals in the 1981–82 campaign as the Algarve club finished in sixth position.
