Carlos Ilídio Moreno Gomes (born 7 December 1970 in Praia), aka Piguita, is a retired Cape Verdean footballer who played as a central defender.
Piguita arrived in Portugal at the age of 22 from Sporting Clube da Praia, suffering two consecutive top flight relegations with F.C. Famalicão and S.C. Beira-Mar.
After one year in the third division with Portimonense SC, he signed for Sporting da Covilhã in the second level, going on to remain with the club for 11 years, appearing in nearly 300 official games and achieving three promotions to division two.
Piguita retired at nearly 40, after three seasons with four teams in Portuguese amateur football.
