one day. So I can start this text, as a story to pack when calling some of Porto’s best club dreams because they have Estádio do Dragão as home. In Front Of Atl. Real Madrid celebrated the official 1000th goal for the Blues and the Whites on that stage, an extraordinary record that relives the great moments and champions of the League champions.
February 7, 2004 was the starting point for the Happy Shots Parade. In the 11th minute of UD Leiria’s reception, in a match related to the 21st round of the 2003/2004 edition of the league, Manish made his debut in the net of the then-new stadium – behind Derley’s celebration in the opening match, against Barcelona, in a 2-1 win (the second was from by Hugo Almeida).
Ironically, the goalkeeper who got hit that night was Hilton, the Brazilian who quickly became a dragon and won the hearts of the fans. It was he who was an outstanding spectator of other Porto goals several times, remembers a luxurious team in the scorers’ column. Like Quaresma, who put his signature on the club’s 100th goal in that green arena.
Bruno Alves, in a match with Nacional that secured the fourth championship in the 2008/2009 season, strengthened the team and … reached 200. Otamendi (300), James Rodriguez (400), Jackson (500), Herrera (600) and Reyes ( 700), Zé Luís (800) and Pepe (900) wrote their names in gold letters in The Dragon’s Diary.
Yustakio, the midfielder who opened the scoring in the 2-1 win over Atletico Madrid, was the last to join the chosen team, as he was responsible for the first thousand on that pitch. McCarthy, for example, scored his first home hat-trick, in 2003/2004, this afternoon when he scored the goal for the South: the goal that FC Porto saw for the most goals (529 vs. 471 in the North’s goal).
