Brazilian forward Rontonê concluded the season with a remarkable statistical feat for Olympiacos, scoring in three consecutive matches over an eight-day period. His goal against AEK on May 17 brought his total to 10 goals in the Super League. Notably, he found the back of the net against PAOK, Panathinaikos, and AEK in three successive high-profile games.

Rontonê's Streak and Historical Comparison

The closest historical comparison in terms of timing was made by Moroccan player Giuseppe El Arambi, who scored in the final stretch of the 2019-20 season against PAOK, Panathinaikos, and AEK from June 7 to June 28. The absolute record for consecutive goals in matches for Olympiacos belongs to Vrentfrank Jorgevits, who found the net in five consecutive matches during the 2001-02 season.

Rontonê made his debut for Olympiacos on January 3, 2023, in a match against Ionikos (Ionikos – Olympiacos 0-3). His first goal in an Olympiacos shirt came on October 1, 2023, in a game against PAS Giannina (PAS Giannina – Olympiacos 0-3). This season, his performance had a strong attacking imprint, especially in the final stages. Rontonê did not just provide solutions from the right side but also joined a small list of players who have marked matches with consecutive goals.
