Club career
Born in Matosinhos, Porto metropolitan area, Cintra played futsal before spending most of his youth career with hometown club Leixões SC, while also having a spell FC Porto. Loaned to Amarante F.C. of the third division in the 2008–09 season, he made his senior debut.[2]
Cintra played 17 times and scored once[3] in the Primeira Liga in the 2009–10 campaign, as Leixões were relegated. A year later, he moved to S.C. Beira-Mar also in the top flight, where he was a fringe player for his first two seasons and was loaned to Segunda Liga side C.D. Aves in January 2013.[4]
In July 2014, Cintra signed a one-year deal with second-division S.C. Freamunde.[5] Both he and fellow unemployed player Tiago Terroso were taken on by Varzim S.C. in November 2015, to play in the reserve team in the third tier.[6] He later represented in that league C.D. Pinhalnovense and F.C. Pedras Rubras, as well as Leixões' reserves in amateur football.[7]
International career
Cintra won one cap for Portugal at under-21 level, coming on as a 60th-minute substitute in the 1–0 away loss against England for the 2011 UEFA European Championship qualifiers on 13 November 2009.[8]
