He was able to burn a game with his brilliant football made of knowledge, intelligence and balance, to draw applause from the audience justified by his gifts of remarkable artist to wich he added a amazing tactical design; reference to the team time to make it shine. He had also the gift of the strong shot, which turned into successive capable and accurate shots able to tare down compact erected walls in front, which he would use at any time and circumstance. And yet, despite the immense heat issue he was a player cold and somewhat off. Not as matters of aesthetics, not to take advantage of it as a surprise, simply because not even the football could change the image of what he was outside, a sad man, put to himself, that wouldn’t exteriorize all the emotions inside, including the ones more vibrant. For all these reasons, António Sousa was a fascinating player.

Midfielder of extreme refinement, was precious in how to put the team work, responsibility to which the added danger in time to get closer to the penalty area. For the power, intuition and sure of his shots, the concept of distance escaped common sense: there was no need to get very close to the goal to score. In direct free kicks, then, everything could happen, especially slightly on the left of the attack – the one that served better his right foot.
