Tiago Magalhães de Sá (born 11 January 1995) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for S.C. Braga as a goalkeeper.

Formed at Braga, where he was mainly a reserve and back-up, he made over 50 first-team appearances and won the 2020–21 Taça de Portugal and two Taça da Liga.

Club career[edit]

Born in Vila Verde, Braga District, Sá joined S.C. Braga's youth system at the age of 10. He spent his first five seasons as a senior with the reserves in the Segunda Liga,[2] his first match in the competition being played on 11 August 2013 in a 1−2 home loss against C.D. Tondela.[3] He was called up to the first team for a home game against Académica de Coimbra on 6 January 2016 due to injury to regular back-up Matheus, and remained unused as Stanislav Kritsyuk played in the 3–0 win.[4]

Early into the 2018−19 campaign, Sá became the first team's first choice due to a serious knee injury contracted by the Brazilian.[5] His Primeira Liga debut took place on 31 August, in a 1−0 away victory over G.D. Chaves.[6]

Sá was voted Braga's Newcomer of the Year in January 2019.[7] Days later, he signed a new contract to tie himself to the club until 2023.[8] He lost his place after Matheus returned to fitness.[9]

Sá's one match as Braga won the Taça da Liga in 2019–20 was the final group game, a 4–1 win at F.C. Paços de Ferreira.[10] He played their first three rounds as they conquered the Taça de Portugal in the following season.[11][12][13] In June 2023, he extended his link for four more years.[14]

International career[edit]

Sá earned 22 caps for Portugal from under-18 to under-20 level, between 2012 and 2015. He was part of the under-19 team that came runners-up at the 2014 UEFA European Championship; his only game was in the semi-final against reigning champions Serbia, coming on as a substitute for the injured André Moreira in the fourth minute of extra time and saving from Sergej Milinković-Savić to win the penalty shootout.[15]
