Recovered from an injury, Alberto Costa returned to the pitch against Arouca, coming on as a substitute and still having time to assist Zaidu, sealing the result (4-0). The full-back, signed from Juventus, was beaming at the end of the match, when FC Porto fans at the Municipal de Arouca sang him happy birthday for his 22nd birthday, which he celebrated on September 29th.
The following Tuesday, Alberto Costa commented on social media about a day that, for the reasons already mentioned, was particularly memorable.
"+3 important points. Thank you Portistas for all the support, and for making this day even more special. We continue our journey together," wrote the full-back, who has already recorded five assists for the Dragons - as many as the matches he has played in blue and white.
In the comments section of this post, the interventions of Samu ("Alberto Ballon d'Or, Alberto Ballon d'Or..."), João Costa ("Postman") and Borja Sainz ("You're great, Alberto") stood out.
