26 May 2024: Jamor crowned Conceição's era, Porto beat Sporting | OneFootball

On May 26, 2024, FC Porto won the Portuguese Cup and brought the Sérgio Conceição 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 the country’s premier cup competition.

It was Sérgio Conceição’s 11th and final title as FC Porto manager, in what would also be his last match in charge of the team. The victory brought an important chapter at the club to a close, 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 2023/24 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 dugout, reinforcing his personal connection to a competition with historic importance for the club.

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