50 league games: Rodrigo Mora beats Rúben Neves' FC Porto record | OneFootball

In their first match as Portuguese League champions, FC Porto were beaten 3-1 by already relegated AFS in a penultimate-round league fixture. Rodrigo Mora started and made his 50th appearance in Portugal’s top flight, adding another historic milestone for the Porto side.

That is because shirt number ’86’ became, this Sunday, the youngest player ever to reach 50 Primeira Liga matches for the blue-and-white team, according to PlaymakerStats.

At 19 years and five days old, Rodrigo Mora surpassed Rúben Neves at the top of this ranking, as the former FC Porto captain had reached that mark at 19 years and six months. Serafim completes the podium, having played his 50th top-flight match for the Dragons at 19 years and seven months.

Fernando Gomes (19 years and ten months) and Futre (20 years old) complete the top five youngest players to reach 50 league appearances in an FC Porto shirt.

Across 50 matches in the Liga Portugal Betclic, Rodrigo Mora has recorded 37 wins, eight draws and just five defeats. In addition, the creative player from the Invicta side has registered 11 goals and four assists, totaling 2,462 minutes since last season.

Despite losing some prominence in 2025/26 — he was one of FC Porto’s main weapons the previous season — Mora has five goals and two assists in 43 matches this season. The future should undoubtedly be bright for the young Dragons playmaker.
