The Maritimo Chronicle
Match24 Oct 2026
Maritimo run riot against Leiria
3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.
Match26 Oct 2026
Nobody above Maritimo
First, on 26 points. The table is a fact and a fact is allowed to be enjoyed, which is as far as anybody at the club is prepared to go in public.
Match24 Oct 2026
Nobody wants to play Maritimo right now
3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.
Squad26 Oct 2026
Words exchanged at Maritimo
Adrián Butzke and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.
The terraces26 Oct 2026
One of their own: Vlad
He is 17 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.
Player ratings26 Oct 2026
A masterclass from Raphael Guzzo
Marked 8.25 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.
Squad26 Oct 2026
Too much change too quickly at Maritimo
15 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.
Squad26 Oct 2026
Davi Santos stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” Davi Santos and Maritimo agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
The dugout26 Oct 2026
A satisfied Jose Pereira
“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 3‑0, Jose Pereira could afford to be generous.
In brief
- Squad A row about effort at Maritimo
- The dugout Aírton dropped after a run of poor form
- The dugout No place in the plan for Adrián Butzke
