The Moreirense Sentinel
Player ratings19 Oct 2026
Nobody could get near Kiko Bondoso
Successful dribbles: 24. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
Match17 Oct 2026
4 matches without a win for Moreirense
The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Moreirense are no longer polite ones.
Squad19 Oct 2026
Tempers go at Moreirense
Kiko Bondoso was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.
Match17 Oct 2026
Moreirense come up short against Alverca
Alverca left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Pedro Reis answers for it
“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑2, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

Dodô signs a new deal
“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Dodô commits to Moreirense for another 3 years.
The dugout19 Oct 2026
The form table has caught Leonardo Vonić
Somebody else has been better, the manager has said so with a team sheet, and there is no argument to be had. He will get the shirt back the only way it can be got back.
The dugout19 Oct 2026
The manager makes an example of Nile John
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
Squad19 Oct 2026
No place for Dodô in the new shape
He is not being dropped. There is simply nowhere in the formation Moreirense are playing to put a man who does what he does, which is a harder thing to be told than any team sheet.
In brief
- Looking ahead Tiago Andrade faces his old club
