Jaime got his first goal in the very next match against Churchill Brothers S.C. when he volleyed in a Lalrindika Ralte's corner from outside the box to the bottom corner to equalize the match.
On 27 January 2019, Jaime Santos scored the opening goal in the return leg of the Kolkata Derby which East Bengal FC won 2–0, hence completing a double over their arch-rivals Mohun Bagan since 2003–04.
