International career
Filipe Duarte secured Macau's first ever World Cup qualifying win on 6 June 2019 against Sri Lanka. But the Macau Football Association then refused to send the team to Sri Lanka to play the second leg due to security reasons.[4]
On 30 August 2024, it was announced that Durate, along with other Portuguese-born permanent Macanese residents are ineligible to play for the Macau National Football Team, ending his international career with Macau. [5]
