Career
Indonesia
Called to Indonesia to direct the Under-18, Under-21, and pre-Olympic selections in the 1990s[1] on a deal between Sampdoria and the Football Association of Indonesia,[2] Matte was in charge of the Garuda for the 1995 Southeast Asian Games, calling up youngsters such as Kurniawan Dwi Yulianto and Kurnia Sandy[3] who later went to Sampdoria through Matte.[1] Assisted by Danurwindo as well as Harry Tjong, the retiree was said to have been paid around 17 million Indonesian rupiahs each month.[4] Recalling his experience there, he admired the locals respect for him and their humility.[2]
Mali
Introduced as Mali Mali coach in summer 2000,[5] the Italian stated that football there used to be intertwined with superstition and that clubs had their own witch doctors,[6] appreciating the passion for the sport in the country as well.[2] However, his time there ended early[2] in 2001 and he watched Les Aigles get the better of South Africa 2–0 before going to Italy.[7]
