Rodrigo Mora picks out his top three moments in 50 games for FC Porto | OneFootball

The match against Nice has become a cherished memory for Rodrigo Mora, as it allowed him to become the youngest player ever to reach 50 appearances wearing the FC Porto jersey, surpassing Rúben Neves’s record.

Among the many memorable moments that brought him to this point, the 18-year-old midfielder highlighted three: “The first was against Bodo/Glimt, which was my debut for FC Porto. Despite the defeat, it was an important day for me. The second was my first goal, against AVS SAD [in the league, on October 18, 2024], and the third, the most beautiful, was my first goal at the Dragão [against Boavista, in the league, on December 28, 2024],” recalled Rodrigo Mora, in statements to FC Porto’s media, admitting that he did not expect to reach this milestone so early in his career.

“I never thought about it, I always let things happen naturally. It’s a historic achievement in my life, it’s the club of my heart, I always dreamed of playing many games for FC Porto and I’m very happy and grateful for that,” said the midfielder, highlighting the maturity he has gained along this journey.

“I’ve grown in terms of maturity, I’ve evolved day by day, I’m not the same as I was in my first 10 games or my first 20, and I think that’s the most important thing, to improve every day,” acknowledged Rodrigo Mora, who surpassed the record set by Rúben Neves, a player for whom he has great admiration.

“I had the pleasure of playing with Rúben, he’s a great player, and I hope one day to reach where Rúben has reached,” he added.
