26 May 2024: Jamor ended Conceição’s era in style, Porto won another cup | OneFootball

On May 26, 2024, FC Porto won the Portuguese Cup and brought Sérgio Conceição's era to a close with another trophy. At the Estádio Nacional in Jamor, the Dragons beat Sporting 2-1 after extra time in the final of Portugal’s premier cup competition.

It was Sérgio Conceição's 11th and final title as Porto manager, in what would also be his last match in charge of the team. The triumph brought an important chapter at the club to an end, adding another Portuguese Cup to the coach’s record on the blue-and-white bench.

In the final, FC Porto got the better of Sporting in a clash that was only decided beyond the 90 minutes, confirming the trophy win on one of the most symbolic dates of the season. The victory allowed Porto to end the 2023/24 campaign with the Portuguese Cup in their honours list and give Sérgio Conceição a title-winning farewell.

There is also one detail with special significance in the bond between the coach and this competition: Sérgio Conceição had already won the Portuguese Cup in 1997/98, then as an FC Porto player. More than two decades later, he lifted the trophy again, this time from the bench, reinforcing his personal connection to a competition that is historic for the club.

The final on May 26, 2024, was therefore marked as the final chapter of Sérgio Conceição's time in charge of FC Porto and as another successful moment for the Dragons in the Portuguese Cup.
