He appeared in 229 Primeira Liga matches in 16 seasons, mainly with União de Leiria (six years) and Sporting (four).


Club career


Costinha was born in Braga. A product of Boavista FC's youth system, he went on to represent Primeira Liga clubs FC Porto and Sporting CP – being mostly a backup player – as well as U.D. Leiria, where he established himself in the top level.

After a short abroad stint with Spain's CD Tenerife, appearing rarely for the Segunda División team, Costinha joined C.F. Os Belenenses for the 2006–07 season. He only was a starter in his first year as he lost his position after the January 2007 arrival of Brazilian Júlio César,[1][2] being definitely released in the summer of 2009 without any further league appearances and retiring shortly after, aged nearly 36.


International career


Costinha represented Portugal at the 1996 Summer Olympics, playing in three matches out of six as the national side finished in fourth place. Previously, he appeared in all the games at the 1993 FIFA World Youth Championship in Australia, with the under-20s losing all three group stage matches (five goals conceded).[3]
