Rachão set his targets as helping the club avoid relegation, and to reach the final of the Taça de Portugal, where they were in the quarter-finals. His debut on 13 February 2005 was a 1–1 draw away to S.C. Beira-Mar. By reaching the cup final, the club qualified for the UEFA Cup, as opponents Benfica had made the UEFA Champions League; in the decisive match on 29 May, the club recovered from conceding an early penalty kick by Simão Sabrosa to win 2–1 for their first cup in 38 years, preventing the adversaries from winning the double. Despite this honour, his contract was not renewed.
