List of Taça de Portugal winning managers explained

This is a list of Taça de Portugal winning football managers.

Albano Paulo led Académica to victory in the inaugural final.

Otto Glória, José Maria Pedroto and Sérgio Conceição have won the competition on four occasions, while János Biri and Fernando Vaz guided their teams to the trophy on three occasions. Otto Glória was the first manager to have won the competition with two different clubs, a feat later achieved by Fernando Vaz, José Maria Pedroto, Jimmy Hagan and Rui Vitória.

Nine managers led their teams to consecutive wins in the tournament: János Biri (1943, 1944), Cândido de Oliveira (1946, 1948), Ted Smith (1949, 1951) Mário Lino (1973, 1974), John Mortimore (1986, 1987), Fernando Santos (2000, 2001), Paulo Bento (2007, 2008), Jesualdo Ferreira (2009, 2010) and Sérgio Conceição (2022–2024). José Maria Pedroto (1975–1977) and Sérgio Conceição (2022–2024) are the only managers to have won three consecutive times; the latter is the only to have won four times with the same club.

Fourteen men have won the tournament both as a player and as a manager, namely Fernando Caiado, Juca, José Maria Pedroto, José Augusto, Mário Lino, António Morais, João Alves, Artur Jorge, Toni, António Oliveira, António Sousa, Paulo Bento, Pedro Emanuel and Sérgio Conceição.[1]
