A year later, Dinis helped Benfica reach the semi-finals of the Campeonato de Portugal.[5][6] He played 12 games in 1932–33, 10 in the Campeonato de Lisboa, scoring twice, as Benfica won a competition.[7][8] His last game was on 18 May 1933, opening the score in the Lisbon Championship final with Beleneses.[8]
