Marcos Pacheco Affini (born 18 June 1984), known as Marcão, is a Brazilian futsal player who plays for Sporting CP as a goalkeeper.
Born in São Paulo, Marcão started his career in the amauter team, EC Ferraz, in the city of Ferraz de Vasconcelos. On 8 August 2007, he moved to Portugal to join C.F. Os Belenenses, arriving at the same time as Diego Sol.
At the Belém-side, he, and others like Pedro Cary, Paulinho and Marcelinho, helped the club reach two playoffs finals against Benfica, losing both, plus two Portuguese Cup finals, winning one, and losing another.
In January 2011, Marcão moved to the Qatar Futsal League, to play for Al Rayyan, staying just eight months, but winning the league title with the Qatari club. On 2 August 2011, he returned to Portugal and joined Benfica. In the three years he spent with them, Marcão won one league title, his second Portuguese Cup, plus two supercups.
In June 2014, Marcão joined AFC Kairat in the Kazakhstani Futsal Championship. At Kairat, he acted mainly as a back-up for Leo Higuita, his replacement at Belenenses, in a side that conquered the 2014–15 UEFA Futsal Cup against Barcelona in Lisbon.
A year after leaving to Kazakhstan, Marcão returned for a third stint in Portugal, joining Sporting CP on 21 July. In two years spent with Sporting, bitter rivals of SL Benfica, Marcão won two league titles, his third portuguese cup, two league cup titles and two regional cups (Taça de Honra).
