Estoril Praia and playing in the third level in the following years. On 26 June 2009 Zezinando underwent a trial at Heart of Midlothian of Scotland, alongside compatriot João Moreira.

Zezinando chose to represent Portugal internationally. He appeared with the under-20s at the 2007 Fédération internationale de football association World Cup in Canada, playing all four matches in an eventual round-of-16 exit.
