Saviola just tore it up all game against Vorskla Portova, almost scoring, then drawing the penalty, then scoring a goal for himself! Him and Cardozo up front have to be the best duo in the portuguese superliga. Then with a midfield that boasts Aimar, Javi Garcia, AND Di Maria. Than, a defensive pair of Luisao and David Luiz. Benfica are serious contenders this year to take the reigns from porto
Braga was OH SO fortunate after THAT digsusting display of refereeing if you can call it that.... Benfica had a clear as day goal dissallowed and 2 penalty claims that were 100% penalties!
Remember the scissor kick vs liverpool? To make it 2-0.... After Simon said BANG into the top corner at Anfield? Those were the Ronaldo Koeman days he took us far in the champions league.... Lost to ronaldinho's barcelona
First Place. It was only a matter of Time. Now its time to hold it down till the last match shouldnt be too hard considring the circumstances. Vamos benfica ! Campeões
I would never underestimate Liverpool, because it is one of the best football teams in the world. I watch them every week. But Sport Lisboa e Benfica is better. One thing is for sure: the next game will be a great football match, and no matter the result, both teams are already winners
Its about time Benfica won something, have always admired their attractive football. Back in the days of simao, micolli, mantorras, etc.... The difference now is they are more determined.... Goodluck....
Ps: is there any chance Di Maria will come to Madrid....
