When receiving the trophies, the striker thanked his teammates, extending the recognition to the whole Casa Pia AC structure, while anticipating a great future for the club.

"We work hard during the week to achieve success on matchdays and improve our individual records. It is an extra motivation that bears even more responsibility to always do more and better", he concluded.

Truly decisive at the attacking front, Jota proved to be essential in the good results achieved after scoring five goals (consecutively) in the six matches played during this period, thus helping Casa Pia AC secure four triumphs and two draws.
