This achievement is notable because Alverca has not competed at this level since 2002. However, the team's recent performance has been impressive, with an unbeaten streak since March 8th. As a result, they secured automatic promotion to the top division, finishing in second place behind the winners of the second division, Tondela.
Vinicius Junior has a personal connection to Alverca, as he is a part-owner of the club. He invested in the team earlier this season, and this achievement is likely to be a source of pride for him.
