Malher Tressor Moreno Baldrich (born 11 January 1979) is a Colombian former professional footballer who played as an attacking midfielder.

Club career

Named after classical music composer Gustav Mahler and famed french Footballer Marius Trésor, Tressor Moreno began his career in the youth ranks of Colombia's Tuluá. In 1998, he emigrated to Peru and made his professional debut with Peruvian powerhouse Alianza Lima. While with Lima he appeared in 40 league matches and scored 16 goals, forming a formidable front line with Claudio Pizarro as Alianza finished league runner-up.[1] During his time with Alianza Moreno was regarded as one of the best foreign players to have played in Peru.[2] In 2000, he returned to Colombia with Atlético Nacional and had another productive season appearing in 34 league matches and scoring 11 times while helping Nacional to win the 2000 Copa Merconorte. As a result of his play with Nacional, Moreno began to draw interest from European clubs and in 2000 was sold to Metz in France.

In 2002, Moreno returned to Colombia as Metz loaned him to América de Cali. While with America, Tressor helped his club to the 2002 Apertura title. For the 2002 Finalización season Moreno was loaned to Independiente Medellín and helped his new club capture the Finalización title. He also played the 2003 Apertura and the 2003 Copa Libertadores with El Poderoso. In the Copa Libertadores, his club reached the semi-finals, with Moreno scoring the opening goal in the second leg, a 3-2 loss to Santos at Estadio Atanasio Girardot.

Moreno returned to France for the 2003–04 season, and although he did not have much success with Metz he did help the club avoid relegation. Once his contract with Metz ended he returned to Colombia and played for Deportivo Cali for the 2004 season, where he scored a goal in a 3-3 draw against his old club Independiente Medellin in the playoffs on 20 June 2004. For the 2005 Apertura he played with Once Caldas.

In July 2005, he would embark on a very productive career in Mexico joining Club Necaxa. He was one of Necaxa's star players during the 2005-06 season appearing in 29 matches and scoring 5 goals. The following season he would join Veracruz and had another fine season appearing in 30 league matches and scoring 8 goals.

In 2007, he would join San Luis and enjoy unprecedented success with the club helping them to a Copa Sudamericana birth in 2008 and a Copa Libertadores birth in 2009. While with San Luis, Moreno appeared in 89 league matches and scored 16 goals, including a brace against Tecos in the 2007 Apertura.[3] In January 2010 Chacarita Juniors was close to signing the Colombian attacking midfielder on loan from San Luis, but the move finally did not materialize and Moreno joined Independiente Medellín for the 2010 league season, 2010 Copa Colombia, and 2010 Copa Libertadores.[4][5]

He joined Bahia of Brazil on 8 February 2011.[6] However, he never played for the club and in August 2011 signed with Chilean club Santiago Wanderers.[7] He became a regular starter for the club, appearing in 23 games and scoring 1 goal.

Moreno was loaned out to San Jose Earthquakes of Major League Soccer on 2 February 2012.[8]

In January 2013, he went back to Colombia and joined Atlético Huila.[9] Six months later in July, he moved to Barranquilla and joined Junior.[10]

International career

On 25 July 2000, Moreno debuted with Colombia in a 2002 World Cup qualifier against Ecuador.[11]

He played with Colombia at the 2004 Copa América, scoring two goals, and at the 2005 CONCACAF Gold Cup, scoring once. On 8 June 2005, Moreno scored twice in a 3–0 victory against Ecuador.[12]
