Squad21 Sep 2026
5 goals for Rochinha
The match ball belongs to Rochinha, whose 5 goals turned a difficult afternoon into a procession.
Match16 Sep 2026
Casa Pia through in the cup
A 9‑0 win over Lusitano Évora, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.
Squad21 Sep 2026
51 days out for André Geraldes after a fracture
A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Casa Pia will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.
Squad21 Sep 2026
A one-man rearguard from André Gomes
There were 7 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

No sign of nerves from Victor Jesus at 20 — 8.20
The hardest thing about being 20 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Victor Jesus did not need any: 8.20, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

A falling-out at Casa Pia
Jérémy Livolant and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Player ratings21 Sep 2026
Rochinha in the eights
A performance of 9.93 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.
Match16 Sep 2026
Nobody could stop scoring
9 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Casa Pia and Lusitano Évora in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.
The terraces21 Sep 2026
One of their own: André Gomes
He is 22 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.
